Thank you for the clarification. Some questions related to V8 perf:

1. WASM <--> JS/Host calls seem to have a higher cost on chrome than FF [1][2]. Is that in your optimization roadmap?

2. Wasmer tracks V8 perf against other backbends, and the LLVM backend consistently outperforms V8 [3]. Can anything be done to address this, especially for node, where the compile time cost of a super optimizing compiler might be beneficial in certain applications?
