Meeting minutes

Slides

plh: Salesforce has been interested in better performance for IndexedDB, used to have interest in WebSQL

fivedots: Will talk to them as SQLite has been a good use case so far

annevk There are open github issues about similarities to the other storage APIs, any updates on that? fivedots: There has been a meeting with owners of other storage API owners, there will be a public doc on the differences soon, a full merger with another storage api is unlikely

plh: What's on the extra slides? fivedots: Use case 1: SQLite and LevelDB ports are online, but LevelDB is outdated at this moment; UC2: Caching

fivedots: Sync vs. async is an issue that comes up in this context, we have experiments that we will verify and then post publically. There might be changes to Wasm's async model in the future that we might profit from. Right now, an async filesystem in combination with asyncify might give a significant slodown
