Awesome work on this, it looks like a game changer!

From my (admittedly limited) knowledge on this space, it seems like this is a straight upgrade over WASM, with the only limiting factor being that your stack is limited to Bun + C. Are there any downsides of this feature when compared with the alternatives mentioned at the start of the article? There are some tradeoffs listed at the bottom but I'm not sure how napi/WASM perform in those aspects either.

NAPI and WASM let you use optimizing compilers, so they're suitable for use with larger C and C++ codebases
