alt Hacker NewsFirst of all, this is wonderful stuff!
As a minor thought / question – I'm a little surprised that this isn't (yet) wired up for pods to run in Web workers.
I appreciate that there is a Clock mechanism (allowing you to step the cluster), which would be more difficult in that setup, but... I feel like especially with SharedArrayBuffer (which admittedly requires the right COOP/COEP), that could be pulled off with atomics.
Would be very cool to be able to actually thread in earnest with this design!
Web workers were on my mind from the start but I never found myself needing them. They were always my ace-in-the-hole if this ended up being too CPU hungry on the main thread but it never happened, so I didn’t bother.
One of the fun things is it shouldn’t be too difficult to create a new RuntimeService that uses web workers and slots in alongside my existing CRI. I’d love a PR along those lines!
