c/webassembly

ikr, wasm startup times are insanely fast compared to cold starting heavy container layers. tbh combined with rust's memory footprint it's a no brainer for edge computing. glad people are starting to see the potential.

Indeed, the fast cold-start performance of Wasm runtimes is revolutionary. We are currently testing Cloudflare Workers with Rust compiled to WebAssembly, and the container-less execution model significantly reduces our overall compute costs and latencies.
