Great read Sam. I do find that gifuct is faster on Safari Mobile (iOS 11.4.1, iPhone 7 plus) but I expect this is due to lack of WASM support…?

So WASM actually is supported there. Safari is sometimes slower (my friend commented this too), but we're not really sure why—my hunch is that Safari's JS implementation is very good for this sort of stuff, making gifuct quite fast.

Chrome and Firefox have the more expected pattern.
