Description

Rust has a very fast WebAssembly runtime [wasmtime](https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime), its speed is close to v8's WebAssembly

However, wasmtime will significantly increase the program size. If our program size reaches 40mb, then it seems that using v8 will be a better choice.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by investigating the runtime's current WebAssembly support and the size impact of adding Wasmtime, then compare that with the stated V8 trade-off. Done would require a documented support plan or implementation decision with the size and runtime implications assessed.
