I'm not the OP, but I have a similar experience with Motor OS: wasmi compiles and works "out of the box", while wasmtime has a bunch of dependencies (e.g. target-lexicon) that won't compile on custom targets even if all

The lainding page at https://github.com/moturus/motor-os explicitly says that both networking and file I/O are slow and have to be improved. The only claim is about fast bootup, and the number is there, and can ea
