The example in article had went from a GZIPed size of 4.1 MB to 3.0 MB. For the massive increase of obscurity the transferal optimization trade off isn't that great. But it's a double edged sword, I'd also wager obscurity would entice larger AAA game developers to start targeting web.
- k3d3 11y agoIt's not an increase in obscurity though: https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/blob/master/TextFormat.md https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/blob/master/TextFormat... The format is intentionally being built in a way that you can look at the source, in the same way you would look at minified Javascript currently. If you're worried about obscurity, look at what is generated by asm.js. WebAssembly won't be any worse than that (and is, in fact, more or less a more efficient/correct equivalent to asm.js).
