Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
we currently allow document mapping with VRL. It's very flexible, it's great, but sadly it leaves a lot of performance on the table
Describe the solution you'd like
having some other way to remap document that may be harder to setup, or less flexible, but faster. For instance we could support using wasm to do the remapping.
Describe alternatives you've considered
let people embed their own rust code to remap by themselves. It requires recompiling, and being somewhat familiar with quickwit source code, and maintaining patches, so it's not really great for most people.
