Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] WebAssembly SIMD review (#487)

If a platform doesn't natively support the corresponding SIMD operations, we WebAssembly falls back to emulation, right?  So with respect to CPU fingerprinting, you can probably figure out whether a system supports the corresponding SIMD operations by timing attacks, but that's it?

How much do CPUs vary in terms of support for these operations?  Just want to know how many bits of CPU information we're exposing here.
