    WASM or [C++] to WASM?

    I've also tried full-text-search in worker by pre-indexing the content, works very fast even with a JS engine - less than 5ms to make a search in 5MB of text.

    It runs out of CPU-time at 6MB of text though.

    There's someone that made a WASM for the same thing too, it's definitely faster and can handle a bit more text.
