- Ah right. Thanks for clarity. For some reason I was thinking of the cases where one shows both the command and output. Yeah for command only that 100% makes sense.
- Why not? (Genuinely)
- nobody has done this yet to my knowledge bsky.app/profile/zook...

View full threadThe webcrypto API is async. IME that made it really slow compared to wasm hash function implementations on small inputs.
- I should say: I suspect that was what made them slow. It's my experience *that* they were slow, but I haven't looked into why exactly.
- smalloc v7.6.3 is up! github.com/zooko/smallo... smalloc is a very simple, fast memory allocator. The core Rust implementation is only 349 lines of code.

View full threadAh, just seeing this in the readme to-do section: > turns out web browsers still limit the virtual memory space to 16 GiB even after the new improved memory model, which kills smalloc in wasm in the web browser. What a shame! But non-web-browser-hosted WASM could still maybe use smalloc...
- I was wondering if wasm runtimes do virtual memory well.
- Cool stuff. `cargo add smmalloc --rename smalloc` oof this is going to be confusing to tell others about 😬 Sounds like something particularly well suited for rust wasm crates, right?

- It's actually a community contribution and based on a *draft PR* supporting custom transports on iroh! So yeah. Not really "shipped" but exists. github.com/n0-computer/...
- Kind of short notice today. But I'm in Brussels for #FOSDEM until this evening. So if anybody wants to link up and talk iroh, QUIC, CRDTs or cryptography, let me know :)
