I think one big difference is that if right now I play the GL demo on Firefox using asm.js, it works.
If I play the same demo on Chrome.. it works.
Now if I play nacl stuff on ANYTHING else than chrome is does NOT work.
For me its not about having a nice language, it's about being standardized.
Else, I can just provide C binaries, they're faster than nacl anyway.

- zobzu 13y agoI don't see where the point of asm.js is sandboxing. In fact, that's pretty much beside the point. Sandboxing in NaCL is just a necessity.
- karlmdavis 13y ago> That's purely an adoption-by-browser problem. ... which is a pretty big problem, right? Especially since I don't think FF is likely to pick up NaCL unless/until hell freezes over.
- duaneb 13y agoThis is by far the best argument, but how is the performance of asm.js under browsers other than firefox?
