Looking at RUST with WASM. this seems to be compiled into WASM using LLVM and run in the browser - would be good to use julia in the same capacity.

how is performance in Julia WASM?.. have we done any benchmarks?  
are we looking at advancing this project? - seems like the last commit was a while ago?  
(I have a requirement that mat benefit from this)
