# JavaScript to WebAssembly Compilation Comparison # JavaScript to WebAssembly Compilation: Performance Analysis
A comprehensive analysis and comparison of different approaches to compile JavaScript to WebAssembly, with a focus on size optimization and runtime compatibility. ## Executive Summary
## 🎯 Overview **Optimal choices by use case:**
- **Minimal size (< 10KB)**: AssemblyScript - 8.2KB gzipped
- **Balance (< 100KB)**: Porffor - 75.1KB gzipped (9.1x larger than smallest)
- **Full JS compatibility**: QuickJS - 265.5KB gzipped (32.3x larger, Wasmer/Extism compatible)
- **Avoid**: Go+Goja - 3.6MB gzipped (445.7x larger than AssemblyScript)
This repository explores 7 different JavaScript-to-WASM compilation approaches: ## Size Comparison (Actual Measurements)
1. **AssemblyScript** - 12KB gzipped ✨ **Smallest size** *Data location: `results/size-comparison.csv`*
2. **TinyGo (optimized)** - 128KB gzipped ✅ **Good balance**
3. **Porffor** - 128KB gzipped (Node.js only)
4. **QuickJS (Rust)** - 320KB gzipped ✅ **Recommended for Wasmer**
5. **TinyGo Basic** - 384KB gzipped (Browser/Node.js)
6. **Go Basic** - 896KB gzipped (Browser/Node.js)
7. **Go + Goja** - 4.1MB gzipped (Full JS engine in Go)

## Extism Runtime Overhead
*Data location: `results/engine-overhead.csv`*
| Language | SDK Size | Dependencies | Total Overhead | Architecture |
|-------------|----------|--------------|----------------|--------------|
| Go | N/A | Pure Go | 0 | Native wazero |
| Rust | 72KB | Static | Embedded | Static link |
| JavaScript | 2.12MB | None | 2.12MB | V8 native |
| Python | 11KB | libextism | 5.7MB | FFI |
| Java | N/A | JNA+libextism| 7.0MB | FFI |
## Key Findings
1. **Size efficiency**: AssemblyScript produces the smallest binaries (8.2KB) but with limited JS compatibility
2. **Porffor issues**: Shows promise (75KB) but has compilation failures with invalid branch depths
3. **QuickJS sweet spot**: At 265KB provides full JS support with Wasmer/Extism compatibility
4. **Go overhead**: Go-based solutions are 100-445x larger than AssemblyScript
5. **Compression rates**: Range from 55% (AssemblyScript) to 85% (Porffor)
## Recommendations

## 📌 Recommendations
- **For smallest size**: Use **AssemblyScript** (12KB) - ideal for simple transformations
- **For balance of size and features**: Use **TinyGo optimized** (128KB) or **Porffor** (128KB)
- **For full JavaScript support in Wasmer**: Use **QuickJS** (320KB) - complete JS engine in WASM
- **For existing Go codebases**: Use **TinyGo** (128-384KB) depending on optimization needs
- **For complex JavaScript transformations**: Use **Go + Goja** (4.1MB) if size isn't critical

# WebAssembly Runtime SDK Evaluation
This directory contains implementations for evaluating the dependency size overhead of WebAssembly runtimes (Wasmer and Extism) across multiple programming languages.
## Structure
```

├── test-modules/ # Minimal WASM modules for testing
├── wasmer/ # Wasmer runtime evaluations
│ ├── python/
│ ├── typescript/
│ ├── go/
│ ├── ruby/ # (planned)

│ └── java/ # (planned)
└── measure_all.sh # Aggregation script
```
## Methodology
### What We Measure
For each runtime/language combination, we measure:
1. **Dependency Download Size**: Total bytes fetched from package registries
2. **Installed Footprint**: Uncompressed size on disk after installation
3. **Deployed Artifact Size**: Size increase of deployable artifacts (binaries, JARs, bundles)
4. **Native Libraries**: Count and size of native libraries included
5. **Lazy Downloads**: Any runtime downloads on first execution
### Measurement Approach
#### Python
- **Baseline**: Empty venv with minimal script
- **With Runtime**: venv with Wasmer/Extism SDK installed
- **Metrics**: venv size delta, pip download size, native .so/.dylib files
#### TypeScript/Node.js
- **Baseline**: Empty npm project
- **With Runtime**: Project with runtime SDK dependencies
- **Metrics**: node_modules size delta, npm pack size, native bindings
#### Go
- **Baseline**: Minimal Go binary
- **With Runtime**: Binary with runtime SDK statically linked
- **Metrics**: Binary size delta, module cache size
### Test Modules
- **add.wasm**: Minimal 41-byte module exporting `add(i32, i32) -> i32`
- **wasi_hello.wasm**: Simple WASI module returning constant value
- **extism_echo.wasm**: Extism plugin with echo functionality (when built)
## Running Measurements
### Quick Start
```bash
# Measure all implementations
mise run measure:runtimes:all
# Measure specific runtime/language
mise run measure:wasmer:python
mise run measure:wasmer:typescript
mise run measure:wasmer:go
mise run measure:extism:python
```
### Manual Execution
```bash
# Build test modules
cd runtimes/test-modules
python3 create_test_modules.py
# Run individual measurement
cd runtimes/wasmer/python
python3 measure.py
# Run all measurements
cd runtimes
./measure_all.sh
```
## Results Format
Each measurement outputs JSON with:
```json
{
"runtime": "wasmer|extism",
"language": "python|typescript|go|ruby|java",
"os": "darwin|linux|windows",
"arch": "arm64|x86_64",
"versions": {

```
## Key Findings
### Size Overhead Comparison
| Runtime | Language | Install Overhead | Download Size | Notes |
|---------|------------|------------------|---------------|-------|
| Wasmer | Python | 3.9 KB | 3.4 KB | ⚠️ Core package only[¹](#footnotes) |
| Wasmer | TypeScript | 12.8 MB | 7.0 MB | @wasmer/sdk v0.9.0 |
| Wasmer | Go | 159.0 KB | N/A[²](#footnotes) | Dynamic linking to libwasmer.dylib |
| Extism | Python | 21.9 MB | 7.1 MB | Includes native libraries |
| Extism | TypeScript | Not tested | - | Partial implementation |
| Extism | Go | Not tested | - | Partial implementation |
### Detailed Results
#### Test Environment
- **OS**: macOS Darwin (arm64)
- **Python**: 3.12.6 / 3.13.3
- **Node.js**: v23.10.0
- **Go**: 1.24.5
- **Date**: August 2024
#### Wasmer Results
**Python (wasmer 1.1.0)**
- Download: 3.4 KB (wasmer-1.1.0-py3-none-any.whl)
- Install size delta: 3.9 KB
- Native libraries: None detected
- Issue: The wasmer package is pure Python without bundled native runtime
**TypeScript (@wasmer/sdk 0.9.0)**
- Download: 7.0 MB (npm packages)
- node_modules size: 12.8 MB
- Native libraries: None detected (WASM-based)
- Notes: Consolidated package, no longer requires @wasmer/wasi or @wasmer/wasmfs
**Go (wasmer-go v1.0.4)**
- Binary size increase: 159 KB
- Module cache: Included in binary
- Linking: Static
- Notes: Very efficient size overhead
#### Extism Results
**Python (extism 1.0.0)**
- Download: 7.1 MB
- Install size delta: 21.9 MB
- Native libraries: Included
- Notes: Significantly larger than Wasmer, includes full plugin runtime
### Footnotes
¹ **Wasmer Python Package Structure**: The wasmer 1.1.0 package on PyPI is the core API package only. To actually compile and run WebAssembly, you need to install a compiler engine separately:
- `pip install wasmer-compiler-cranelift==1.1.0` (recommended for development)
- `pip install wasmer-compiler-llvm==1.1.0` (recommended for production)
- `pip install wasmer-compiler-singlepass==1.1.0` (fastest compilation)
Our measurement only included the core package. With cranelift compiler, the total download would be significantly larger.
² **Wasmer Go Dynamic Linking**: The Go binary dynamically links to `libwasmer.dylib` which must be installed separately or bundled with the application. The binary size increase (159KB) doesn't include the ~40MB libwasmer library. For distribution, you need either:
- System-wide Wasmer installation
- Bundle libwasmer.dylib with your application
- Use CGO_ENABLED=0 for static linking (if supported)
### Analysis & Recommendations
#### Key Takeaways
1. **Go requires external dependencies**: Despite small binary size increase (159KB), it needs libwasmer.dylib (~40MB) at runtime due to dynamic linking.
2. **TypeScript/Node.js is self-contained**: 12.8MB for @wasmer/sdk includes everything needed, making deployment simpler.
3. **Python Wasmer is modular**: Requires separate compiler package installation. Total size with compiler would be much larger than our 3.9KB measurement.
4. **Extism is all-inclusive**: At 21.9MB for Python, it bundles everything needed including native libraries.
#### Recommendations by Use Case
- **Self-contained deployment**: Use TypeScript with @wasmer/sdk (12.8MB all-inclusive)
- **Minimal binary size**: Use Go, but plan for libwasmer distribution
- **Python applications**: Install both wasmer and a compiler package, or use wasmtime
- **Plugin systems**: Extism provides the most complete out-of-box experience
### Platform Considerations
- **macOS ARM64**: Some SDKs may not have pre-built wheels/binaries
- **Python 3.13**: Newer Python versions may lack wheel support
- **Native Libraries**: Dynamic vs static linking varies by language
- **Lazy Downloads**: Some SDKs download native components on first use
## Adding New Languages
To add Ruby or Java support:
1. Create directory: `runtimes/{runtime}/{language}/`
2. Add implementation files:
- `main.{ext}`: Runtime loader/executor
- `baseline.{ext}`: Minimal app without runtime
- `measure.{sh|py|js}`: Measurement script
3. Update `measure_all.sh` to include new language
4. Add mise task in `.mise.toml`
## Known Issues
1. **Wasmer Python on ARM64**: Limited wheel availability
2. **Extism Plugin Format**: Requires Extism-specific WASM format
3. **Version Compatibility**: Some SDK versions may not support latest language versions
## Future Improvements
- [ ] Add Ruby implementations
- [ ] Add Java implementations
- [ ] Create Docker containers for reproducible Linux measurements
- [ ] Add performance benchmarks (instantiation time, call overhead)
- [ ] Measure memory footprint at runtime
- [ ] Test with real-world WASM modules
- [ ] Add CI/CD automation for measurements

# Test WASM Modules
These are minimal WASM modules used for testing runtime overhead.
## add.wasm
- **Size**: 41 bytes
- **SHA256**: f61fd62f57c41269c3c23f360eeaf1090b1db9c38651106674d48bc65dba88ba
- **Exports**: add(i32, i32) -> i32
- **Description**: Simple addition function for basic runtime testing
- **Source**: Hand-crafted binary (equivalent to WAT: (module (func $add (param i32 i32) (result i32) (i32.add (local.get 0) (local.get 1))) (export "add" (func $add))))
## wasi_hello.wasm
- **Size**: 38 bytes
- **SHA256**: 53bd3da2fb75bcafb0677938f211ce6c85da8b6c1b6607b239786373b767e155
- **Exports**: hello() -> i32
- **Description**: Minimal WASI module that returns 42
- **Source**: Hand-crafted binary (returns constant value, no actual WASI imports)
## extism_echo.wasm
- **Note**: Requires Extism PDK to build. Will be created when needed for Extism-specific tests.
