I've been involved in the re-drafting of this charter as part of the
regular wasm WG meetings and I think we should support it.
Cheers,

Since dynamic import is a core part of the JS language, with dedicated
syntax (`import` is not a plain function, but a fixed syntactic form), it
would seem to fall under the new, underlined JS exception in the first
section of

then forgot to reply with the response.)
It doesn't seem like any SM devs use --enable-shared-js for their own
development but we do know that various embedders (e.g. GNOME) use the JS
shared library and so we'd like to keep t

If we do unify Gecko/SpiderMonkey styles (something it seems like we're
moving towards and I think would be great), it would be a real shame to
switch 'cx' (a parameter to basically every function in SpiderMonkey) to
'aCx'; that would really make some eyes bleed. One compromise could be to

In addition to judging noisiness by volume over a whole test run, can we
also include any warning that happens on normal browser startup, new tab,
and other vanilla browser operations? This has always annoyed me.

It definitely makes sense to start your performance investigation with
processCount=1 since that will likely highlight the low-hanging fruit which
should be fixed regardless of processCount.
My question is: after a decent period of time picking the low-hanging
fruit, if there is still non-trivial

I have a short summary of why caching JIT code is not necessarily a clear win
for most JS in a blog post:

We do machine code for asm.js, though (as also described in the post).

To save typing, the JS engine has typedefs like
typedef Handle HandleObject;
typedef Rooted RootedValue;
and the official style is to prefer the HandleX/RootedX typedefs when there is
no need to use the Handle/Rooted template-ids directly.
