  • iswasmfast

    Performance comparison of WebAssembly, C++ Addon, and native implementations of various algorithms in Node.js.

  • WASM has its moments, as you can see in this[1] benchmark it outperforms JS and native addons on certain tasks.

    Since the bottleneck with native addons is usually data copying/marshalling, and we have direct access to WebAssembly memory from the JavaScript side, using WebAssembly on this "shared" memory might become the best approach for computationally heavy tasks. I wrote about it a bit here[2].

    It's pretty nice having the whole code base share types, syntax, structure, etc.
