If the emscriptened code does the right thing, then its output is object code, no more in need of by-hand maintenance than the object code from a compiler, right?

Anyway, I'd be interested to see how much faster you are (at comparable image quality) than one of the suggested libraries. If you are in fact a lot faster, I'd be curious to know what it is that you're doing that you think makes it run significantly faster in current JavaScript engines than translated code.

Sure, you can test and compare it:
