Hi Martin I'm interested in the web assembly for HTML5. I had actually written two different apps which I would have done as HTML5 but the loading time alone was just to slow. The increased loading speed alone should now make these possible as HTML5. There are still a lot of other things that are difficult to do with the current HTML5 deployment to make it anything like a fat-client deployment. Still, for my purposes it can't even get off the ground without the initial load speed improvement.
I am expecting the M1 build to bring about increased performance, but I have no complaints with the current Rosetta speed on M1 (but the 10x faster startup time of M1 Macs over Intel Macs could give us some idea of how much of a speed increase we might see). I like the array literals idea. That's something I've wanted for so, so long. And the constants built from expressions is a nice thing to have. Having named rather than merely positional parameters for handlers would also be something I'd like (Python does a few things right). But these things are basically syntactic sugar. With Switch statements I always try to put the options in order of greatest likelihood first, but that can't always make a difference if conditions follow a more even distribution. Still, it's one less thing to have to think about. But I would hope there are even bigger things coming with version 10 than these.
