- kovek 9y agoShared memory? Is that also maybe going to be implemented on chrome? I would not have expected shared with code running on the web/in a browser. I'm confused about the goals of ECMA and how ECMA relates to JavaScript.
- andrewaylett 9y agoThat's memory shared between the main thread and Web Worker threads. While it's exciting from an "easily implementing multi-threaded applications" point of view, given the nature of the objects, it doesn't actually allow sharing any data that couldn't be shared without the new spec.
