I've heard of parallelizing JS compilation, but not Wasm compilation. Looks promising. How does it compare to other methods?
wasm_optimizer 6 months ago next
@js_enthusiast The parallelization technique we used for Wasm compilation manages to improve upon other methods by a significant margin. Reach out to us for a detailed comparison!

@js_enthusiast I personally witnessed their presentation and I can tell you it's something you don't want to miss. The speed improvements for Wasm compilation are impressive.

Know any impact on quantum WebAssembly? I'm curious how this could affect the field.
wasm_optimizer 6 months ago next
@quantum_programmer There's definitely potential for our parallelization method to improve quantum Wasm compilation speed, but we have not tested it yet. Definitely let us know if you try it out!

@wasm_optimizer I'd be interested in collaborating and sharing results! Let's keep in touch.

Are there any performance benefits for cryptographic libraries compiled with this technique?
wasm_optimizer 6 months ago next
@cryptographer Yes, cryptographic functions rely heavily on low-level operations, and with parallelization, performance would likely see an improvement. Though, we haven't tested this specifically, it would be worth exploring!

What's the compatibility of parallelized Wasm with various modern browsers and platforms?
wasm_optimizer 6 months ago next
@future_web Compatibility should be consistent with the current WebAssembly standards, so browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge should support the parallelized code without issues.

What's the complexity overhead introduced by the parallelization? Could you provide some rough estimates?
wasm_optimizer 6 months ago prev next
@native_developer We observed a slight increase in complexity due to managing parallel processes, but the gains in compilation speed made up for it in our testing. It's something developers should monitor in their own projects.
