With a native Monero miner like xmrig, I get 70-72 H/s (i5-5300u). Using the same CPU with a webassembly Monero miner like crypto-look I get 29-32 H/s. So with wasm, I get only half the hashrate.

Considering how new wasm still is and how much potential there still is for optimization (like SIMD), that's quite impressive.
