I had the opportunity to do some modest contributions to the underlying project (v86). I wanted to implement the full SIMD instruction sets, but it was almost impossible due to the current limitations of javascript.

The only way to do it properly would have been to wait for the support of SIMD instructions in webassembly. I had a chat with the main contributor Fabian, he had plans to port v86 in webassembly. I wonder if he ever succeed.

So this not a complete emulation as far I know, there is room for improvements.
