One is a large c++ compiled ti asm.js and wasm. The other is wasm compiled rust vs javascript. How are they comparable?

GP is just wondering why the results are so different.
You can't compare small/micro-benchmarks that call into WebAssembly and then get the result with a larger full-stack application where parts are in JS and parts in WASM - both are highly interlinked. This is much more reflective of real products. We couldn't find a benchmark that shows such end-to-end usage, so we built one.
