wasix-libc VS winterjs

But how do you know where to import these functions? Idk bro, I just grepped the wasix-libc till I found something that looked right.

Very few things are impossible on tech land.

I'd like to invite you to https://wasmer.sh/, where you'll see bash compiled to Wasm and working fully on the browser, using fork under the hood.

Also, this example might be enlightening: https://github.com/wasix-org/wasix-libc/blob/main/examples/f... (feel free to chime into the examples folder, where you may see other previously-thought-impossible accomplishments, such as longjmp and setjmp working fully on the browser).

Below, we can see Bun’s performance: In this specific example, you can see that Bun performs better than WinterJS on my computer. WinterJS is said to run much better natively than when it runs using Wasmer, so this explains its underperformance in this test. A native result might look something like this instead: The sample result above comes from the WinterJS GitHub and shows how it does better natively with this very simple test.

Wasmer.io recently released an article announcing their Winter.js 1.0, however looking at the details of their benchmarks it shows that running Winter.js in wasm results in a 12x slow down in performance compared to native.
