If your script does not do a "document.write", it should probably have the defer attribute to not hang up the loading of the page. But this appears only to work in IE now, not in Firefox.
Quoted: Defer execution of your JavaScripts with the defer attribute to speed initial content display.

IE has a subtle bug when parsing array constants - I think they are not in conformance with the ECMA-262 spec.

Update: Object initializers are even worse! Fails to parse the JS at all.
