Slightly orthogonal...

In my Sciter, that uses QuickJS (no JIT), instead of JIT I've added C compiler. That means we can add not just JS modules but C modules too:

   import * as cmod from "./cmodule.c"

Such cmodule will be compiled and executed on the fly into native code. Idea is simple each language is good for specific tasks. JS is flexible and C is performant - just use right tool that is most optimal for a task.

c-modules play two major roles: FFI and number crunching code execution.

Sciter uses TCC compiler and runtime.

In total size of QuickJS + TCC binary bundle 500k + 220k = 720k.

For the comparison: V8 is of 40mb size.
