- kevingadd 4y agoNot all execution targets for wasm can do this.
- sudosysgen 4y agoThere are very few such targets, thus they will simply have to pay the extra cost. It's a very, very good tradeoff to make. If you're trying to get every ounce of performance out of a CPU lacking very basic memory management facilities, it's probably a good idea not to use wasm.
