as lucet seems to sit on top of cranelift too ... do you expect a huge difference?

`wasmtime -o` sets Cranelift optimization to `best` just like Lucet, the Cranelift version is pretty much the same, so I don’t expect any difference.

for me as a packager now the 2 more important questions are: 1. when will we see demand to ship a runtime on our distros? 2. how much pain it will it be to package this. (e.g. can I have a cranelift package which is shared between lucet and wasmtime)

I don’t see that demand in a near future, especially since wasm is still a moving target. Shipping a runtime in an LTS distro today would be a bad idea. It probably won’t run code written a year from now.

Well we could start with openSUSE Tumbleweed which is our rolling release distro. And I have the feeling to give early feedback from the downstream side might be a good thing. so we dont end up with situations like the pain of bootstrapping rust.

A rolling release is indeed best for this.
