## Note on the synchronous APIs
|
|
|
|
Chrome is currently working with developers to explore the performance
|
|
implications of using NativeIO as an asynchronous Promise-based API from
|
|
WebAssembly.
|
|
|
|
In order to assess the performance overhead, a baseline is needed. This baseline
|
|
is a synchronous API that can be easily used to port existing database code to
|
|
WebAssembly. The synchronous API is only exposed to dedicated workers.
|
|
|
|
Until our performance studies are concluded, Chrome has no plans of shipping the
|
|
synchronous API. In other words, there are no plans of adding a new synchronous
|
|
storage API to the Web Platform.
