I guess not much can be done at the moment: dependencies are often the primary obstacle in porting crates to new targets, and just comparing the list of dependencies of wasmtime vs wasmi gives a pretty good indication of which crate is a bit more careful in this regard:

https://crates.io/crates/wasmtime/33.0.0/dependencies https://crates.io/crates/wasmi/0.47.0/dependencies

Wasmtime has many capabilities that wasmi does not, and therefore has more optional dependencies, but the required set of dependencies has been portable to every platform I've targeted so far. If anything does present a concrete issue we are eager to address it. For example, you could file an issue on target-lexicon describing how to reproduce your issue.

That's great to hear! I think it is a bit too early to spend extra effort on porting Wasmtime to Motor OS at the moment, as there are a couple of more pressing issues to sort out (e.g. FS performance is not yet where it should be), but in a couple of months I may reach out!
