Hello,



Also news on Edge compatibility:

>>>>> total time: 3968

Note: the only browser where web-assembly is slower than javascript.

But it works now with wa. A little faster in javascript than the last test.

Hello,



In last test with Google Chrome 67 I noticed that WA is now about 8x slower than JS.

In current Firefox WA is still faster than JS.



I also test a chromium based broser which shows similar Performance like Chrome. Also slow WA.



I wonder if it could be a problem with the used emscripten version.



Latest emscripten: Emscripten: 1.38.4 (June 02, 2018)

Hello,



Chrome Version 68.0.3440.75 (Offizieller Build) (64-Bit) is back on full speed with  webassembly.



Firefox 61.0.1 (64-Bit) still a bit faster.

Hello Lutz,



In the index.html is some code to Show a progressbar for downloading.

I was wondering that it never Show up. Only the Status text changed.

Code Select Expand


      if (!Module.setStatus.last) Module.setStatus.last = { time: Date.now(), text: '' };
          if (text === Module.setStatus.text) return;
          var m = text.match(/([^(]+)((d+(.d+)?)/(d+))/);
            alert (text);
            alert (m);

The m variable keeps always null so the later if gets never true.

The original index.html was taken from some other application dealing with compiled JavaScript. This is probably some left-over unused or only partly used code.

Hello,



Latest obserations with chrome 72:



http://www.ferrydb.nl/newlisp/">http://www.ferrydb.nl/newlisp/

http://www.ferrydb.nl/newlisp-wa/">http://www.ferrydb.nl/newlisp-wa/



For both url's chrome 72 shows a warning sign in front of the url "Nicht sicher" (german for not secure)

Performance seems slower on both than older versions.

Not nice.

Hello,



Oops, nothing special with Chrome and newlisp in the browser.

The "Not secure" Display is for every Non-https site.
