WASM performance and overhead currently make it a poor application for edge serverless scenario for something that is compiled (as it is in many other languages, really, stop adding overhead of yet another runtime undoing decades of optimization work).
"Consumption plan" azure functions as they call it are much more in line with V8 isolates where your function is just an isolated assembly run on a common runtime alongside many other functions. It has limitations and I assume the implementation of this is not open source (I don't know what it runs on exactly as azure functions implementation details never really interested me much).
