near-native performance
About this tag
The tag near-native performance on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about achieving performance levels close to native code execution in web and application environments. A key topic is asm.js, a strict subset of JavaScript that enables near-native performance by allowing engines like Microsoft Edge's Chakra to optimize code ahead of time. This technology benefits Hosted Web Applications and WebViews in Universal Windows Apps, improving responsiveness and efficiency. The tag focuses on browser-based optimizations and runtime improvements that bridge the gap between interpreted scripts and compiled binaries.
In June we introduced preview support for asm.js, which is now supported by default in Microsoft Edge starting with Microsoft EdgeHTML 13.10532. With this change, Hosted Web Applications and the WebView in any Universal Windows Application can now benefit from asm-optimized code as well.
