> quick-to-start, and low resource usage

Are there realistic benchmarks that quantify these gains?

A first view of the promise reads reminiscent to the JVM days, which promised to solve portability. The main difference is JIT vs. AOT, but hidden behind that remains also the complex management of FS access, threading, spawning, SIMD, GPU, and other unportable differences. While I imagine that the shim would avoid having a whole Linux, what do we lose in the change?
