  • Hello everyone, hello Gordon,
    I'm Thomas from neonious. Just noticed this thread (Google).

    Regarding your post: you are incorrect with that the async functions of low.js will block somewhere. low.js provides 100% async read/writes. The async calls go into a different thread, which does not block the code thread. The neonious one even utilizes an additional SPI flash chip for the file system, so there is no call to esp_partition_read/write or whatever which would block.

    Regarding speed of byte code vs source code, the following code runs multiple minutes with Espruino, while it only runs for 5 secs on low.js:

    var k = 0;
    for(var i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
        for(var j = 0; j < 1000; j++)
            k += j;
    console.log('Done', k);
    

    Over all, we're trying to be 100% truthful, so if you see anything wrong in our comparison on our website, please tell me exactly what we shall change.
    Thank you,
    Thomas
