I'm just speculating wildly like most other people here are, but you really think it wasn't a positive for them that they could reuse the JIT they've invested in and have expertise in rather than relying on LLVM.
- drivebyacct2 14y agoI don't want to speak to that. I was more referring to the notion that they didn't consider it because LLVM is a large dependency. As others have noted, emscripten uses LLVM, and it's likely that LLVM will be leverage to coerce other code in asm.js style javascript. Mozilla's reasons for not wanting NaCl have been spelled out lots of places.
