Description
Currently floating point numbers are handled by Berkeley Soft floats, as stated in the readme these are precise but slow.
Could there be an optional setting in libv86 for faster floats using 64bit js or wasm floats in place of 80 bit x87 floats (with the main downside being precision)? A hack like what box86 does for floats may help performance.
