Speed test of wasm at node vs deno vs wapm

Recently, I have created an app in Rust language for macOS then to make it cross-platform, ported it for other platforms using WebAssembly.

I have ported the app for these platforms:
  1. WAPM ⟶ Using WASI file as binary, i.e., generated via Rust
  2. Deno ⟶ Using WASM file as library, i.e., generated via Rust
  3. Node.js ⟶ Using WASM file as library, i.e., generated via Rust

Initially, I had made it on macOS where it runs very fast but on Windows it gets slowed down so much that is clearly visible.

So I tried to measure it somehow for which I took a command for the app which decodes the input parameter. Here is that command,

> ds -d 31kk ⟶ 3-1-2020

Now I need to measure the timelapse after each execution for which I'd used

> w32tm /query /status /verbose | find "Time since" && node ds -d 31kk && w32tm /query /status /verbose | find "Time since" && deno ds -d 31kk && w32tm /query /status /verbose | find "Time since" && wapm run ds -d 31kk && w32tm /query /status /verbose | find "Time since"

Where the application versions used for each platforms are
  • wapm ⟶ 0.4.1
  • node ⟶ 10.16.3
  • deno ⟶ 0.28.0

Observation

So I got the data, which after processing gave me below table after 5 iterations on each platform at Windows.

Iteration node deno wapm
1
3.265
3.410
5.651
2
3.347
3.792
5.573
3
3.381
3.517
5.575
4
3.190
3.529
5.688
5
3.412
3.577
5.672

In the above, table cell values are given in seconds.

Below is the plotted bar chart for this table.


Conclusion

As you can see in the chart the speed of node is highest while of wapm is lowest.

So the speed in order would be like this,


There is marginal difference in between node & deno which uses wasm in comparison to wapm which uses wasi.

The wapm is wasmer based package manager and wasi runtime.

Unlock protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7

Recently I'd been called by Hindalco's Fabrication Plant division to unlock the protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7. They were in need to unlock those blocks since an year because of 1 million Rupees of loss per month. They want to re-program those blocks but it was locked by the man who'd done the setup. From the people working in that department, I came to know that they were trying to call that man (someone from Italy) right here but he's not coming. Actually, what he'd done was that he'd locked some of the blocks and deleted the source file. And Siemens didn't provide any feature to unlock. Department people also told me that even the people working in Siemens don't know how to do it. Being a software engineer I know that any thing can be reverse engineered. So I took up the challenge. How did I unlocked the blocks? The first thing I'd done was searched about this software at Google and read about what is this software all about. Aft...

JS: The complete code example of Crypto.js (DES)

For one of the project I was trying to use crypto.js but I found that the Quick-start Guide have some deficiency in terms of library usage. So I am writing it here as a useful note for memory recap. <script src="http://crypto-js.googlecode.com/svn/tags/3.1.2/build/rollups/tripledes.js"></script> <script> var encrypted = CryptoJS.DES.encrypt("The secret message", "secret_key"); var e_msg = encrypted.toString(); console.log(e_msg); var decrypted = CryptoJS.DES.decrypt(e_msg, "secret_key"); var d_msg = decrypted.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8); console.log(d_msg); </script>

Openmeetings Widget Wordpress Plugin

One of my client asked me to create a Wordpress plugin, so the first thing I did was to search for any existing plugin on which I can work on. Luckily I found one. It was developed by Shuki Vaknin. You can visit his plugin at:  http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/openmeetings-integration-plugin-widget/ But I had little different requirement. So I modified the Shuki Vaknin's plugin. The modification is that every session has a unique username. I choose guest as default name while adding a timestamp along with guest keyword like guest34578689 .
