The framework runs these Wasm controllers in a modified version of Wasmtime, the reference WebAssembly (Wasm) runtime, that swaps idle controllers to disk and activates them when needed. A thorough evaluation shows this framework achieves a 64% memory reduction compared to traditional container-based controller frameworks...&quot; [PDF] - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2209.01077.pdf</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2209.01077/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
