Is calling a Rust function from NodeJS via WASM like really slow?

You should check out my example I posted above, here https://github.com/etrombly/syntect_test . I think I'm getting pretty good performance from it.

  A beautiful yet powerful syntax highlighter

  

I use a lot of different syntax highlighters to highlight code snippets from markdown contents, including shiki, prismjs, and highlightjs. But they all have different problems. For one, prismjs and highlightjs aren't as good as shiki at highlighting tokens, and sometimes result in incomplete/inconsistent highlightings. On the other hand, shiki, being ported part of from vscode's syntax highlighter, outputs IDE level super accurate syntax highlighting and has a great number of themes to choose. But shiki is super slow compared to prismjs and highlightjs.
