- vrtnis 2y agowhile it's true that wasm was originally designed to run primarily on the cpu(e.g., executed in a sandboxed environment on the main thread, which is generally managed by the cpu), the assumption that wasm only runs on the cpu might be becoming a bit dated. esp. as a result of webgpu and frameworks mentioned above, wasm is increasingly capable of executing on the gpu imho.
