Research direction

Start by locating the simd-accel implementation and its existing x86_64 and aarch64 performance tests or benchmarks. Then trace how the wasm32 target and simd128 feature are configured. Done means simd-accel works on wasm32 with simd128 and performs well without regressing the stated native targets.
