summary
Claimed speedups: Rust compiled to WebAssembly yields dramatic gains versus Python and containers — citing up to 25x faster than Python and an IBM-style 12–15x or more, and a study showing Wasm ~5x faster and 10x smaller than Docker. Demonstration builds a Rust binary embedding QuickJS and calling the WasmEdge TensorFlow Lite extension, compiled with cargo --target=wasm32-wasi, then run with wasmedge to classify images (MobileNet TF Lite) and returns labels and confidences (e.g., pepperoni 38%, hamburger 60%).
