> sqlite ... 19x slower

But is this a failing of wasm or the system glue layer, that for something like sqlite/web has to go through js/browser/etc?

Yes, I understand the importance of real-life tests like this, but how one is expected to go about testing wasm performance as such other than using benchmarks that are mostly arithmetic/logic and not syscall-type code?

How you use it in real life has to be taken in consideration. From memory system like calls go through JS and there's no realloc. I didn't want to say it in my first comment because I notice the more someone writes the more likely others will argue. I rather someone else post the SQL benchmark but apparently everyone drank the kool aid and had no idea wasm isn't that fast. I certainly would rather use JS than write c++/rust. I wouldn't be surprised if that list of companies using wasm only use it for one or two large projects then stuck to js because of how much work wasm is
