Will WASM be fast some time? (Was: thank you for the FLOPs)

Hi,
I wonder wether WASM will be fast some time.
I found this paper which draws a rather dim picture,
but the paper is already a little bit old:
Understanding the Performance of WebAssembly Application
Weihang Wang et al. - 2021
https://weihang-wang.github.io/papers/imc21.pdf
The take away is more or less that jitted JavaScript has
same speed as WASM. With sometimes WASM more favorable
outcome for Firefox than for Chrome and Edge:
Java Script Chrome Firefox Edge
D.1 Exec. Time (ms) 45.57 48.26 63.62
M.2 Exec. Time (ms) 249.60 167.03 201.68
WASM Chrome Firefox Edge
D.1 Exec. Time (ms) 65.23 39.65 83.53
M.2 Exec. Time (ms) 233.08 345.98 192.87
Bye

Hi,
 Given that Scryer Prolog is dead.
This made me smile, traces of Scryer Prolog
 are found in FLOPs 2024 proceedings:
 7th International Symposium, FLOPS 2024,
Kumamoto, Japan, May 15–17, 2024, Proceedings
https://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/jeremy.gibbons/flops2024.pdf
 So why did it flop? Missing garbage collection
in the Prolog System? Or did or is it to estimate
that ChatGPT will also kill Scryer Prolog?
 Or simply a problem of using Rust as the
underlying host language?
 Bye
