WebAssembly can hit better perf



How much better and for what cost?

Last comparison I saw gave it about 25% compared to js. And it currently loses in dom manipulation, if you do that a lot it will be slower. It can of course still be worth it but I think people sometimes overestimates the performance gains of wasm.
