Deno: an experimental approach on V8 interoperability
summary
Covers porting Deno’s V8-to-backend messaging layer from Go to Rust, reproducing file I/O round trips and implementing an HTTP module that became a PR. Names concrete limits in the Go approach (pointer restrictions, dual garbage collectors, extra memory copies), shows a Rust dispatcher implementation that reuses Deno’s JavaScript libraries to produce a single distributable binary, and presents early benchmarks comparing Go vs Rust performance and trade-offs.
