Re: ScriptProcessorNode off the main thread (Was: Questioning the current direction of the Web Audio API)

The only alternative I can think of that could provide significant benefits
over using Worker is to define a very restrictive subset of JS that allows
describing closed functions (no access to any environment; all that's
available is the function parameters) and extend JS engines to allow
running these functions with a timeout if the function runs too long. There
are some other use-cases that need functionality like this. Unfortunately
it's a lot of language spec and implementation work to create something
like that.
