Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Is WebAssembly magic performance pixie dust?
One of my colleagues told me to stop doing that because in (I think) V8 these values are immediately converted back to a double nowadays. So annotating all code with |0 doesn't really add speed benefits there, just extra conversions between doubles and integers. Said colleague used to maintain human-asmjs so I trust he knows what he's talking about.

Is WebAssembly magic performance pixie dust?
Doesn't seem to stop MS with Blazor (.Net), Rust, and a few others from doing this. Also, there are plenty of games running in web assembly using bindings for things like WebGL and openal via similar bindings. As far as I know the current situation is pretty workable already and getting better. E.g. garbage collection is coming pretty soon.
I guess it depends on what you are doing. For most people doing web assembly, the point is avoiding dealing with/minimizing the need for interacting with javascript. But still, it seems there are some nice virtual dom options for Rust: https://github.com/fitzgen/dodrio that are allededly fast and performant (not a Rust programmer myself).
