Comment on WebAssembly adoption: Is slow and steady winning the race?parentComments−mc_woods2yYup. WASM lacks the "domain specific" acceleration available to native code. So you miss out on any hardware codec support. Same is true for openSSL, there is a bunch of encryption acceleration in modern CPUs that WASM can't access at the moment.
