[21:34:58 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> in your Current_Faust_Compilation demo, you've got a file:// url, which means I couldn't try it out
...
[22:43:26 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> yeah, it'll be interesting to see what they do
[22:44:05 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> The other thing I wondered about is why you didn't mention the question of how much of a speed benefit we can expect with asm.js, based on the architecture of Web Audio, etc.
[22:44:17 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I guess we haven't had much of a chance to talk about it, what with our travel schedules
[22:44:38 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> but I'm increasingly doubtful that asm.js offers terribly much benefit
[22:44:52 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> but I suppose we should suffer through trying to port a few more examples to see
[22:45:21 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I mean, garbage is probably our first enemy
[22:45:33 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> and I've written all of Flocking's unit generators to essentially be garbage-free
[22:45:56 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> at least until you go swapping one unit generator for another or other much more esoteric things
[22:46:07 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> my impression is that the VMs are really good at optimizing hot loops
[22:46:13 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> which is what most unit generators tend to be
[22:46:28 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Types are totally stable
[22:46:36 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> oh yeah
[22:46:53 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> so an engine like V8 is likely going to compile a UGen to the point where it's pretty fast to begin with
[22:46:54 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> Hongchan is maybe interested in using flocking to link together his waax modules
[22:47:03 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> ah, nice
[22:47:05 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> why is that?
[22:47:11 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> becuase I was talking about it
[22:47:28 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> have may have just been polite about it
[22:47:34 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> 
[22:47:51 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> brb again
[22:47:53 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> sorry
[22:47:58 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> so much to tlak about though 
[22:52:32 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark>
[22:52:35 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> totally
