Now waiting for Cloudflare to allow me to use Rust for serverless, real native code, not WebAssembly.

They have containers, does that count?

If you’re specifically thinking of native ephemeral workers with very fast startup, it seems like those would have to be sandboxed somehow, and WebAssembly seems like a decent solution. Is there really a significant native code gap between WebAssembly workers and native containers?
