I'm not a developer and so apologize if my understanding is oversimplified or naive. I had been under the impression that C++ (previously) was not being used at all, apart from Gecko itself, for security and stability reasons. Perhaps I am mistaken or simply misunderstand the structures discussed here.
Anyway, I just wanted to suggest that in the future, once asm.js has come to greater maturity (and of course GGC & Lazy bytecode gen), perhaps these workers could be compiled to asm. This would keep the security of JS while having high performance and not require a rewrite. Again, apologies if my underlying assumptions or understandings are errant. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
