eWASM has costed opcodes. The EVM virtual machine has not implemented eWASM.

Costed opcodes in WASM for agents could incentivize efficiency

Browser tabs could show CPU, RAM, GPU utilization;

From "The Risks of WebAssembly" (2022) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32765865 :

> Don't there need to be per- CPU/RAM/GPU quotas per WASM scope/tab? Or is preventing DOS with WASM out of scope for browsers?

> IIRC, it's possible to check resource utilization in e.g. a browser Task Manager, but there's no way to do `nice` or `docker --cpu-quota` or `systemd-nspawn --cpu-affinity` to prevent one or more WASM tabs from DOS'ing a workstation with non-costed operations.

Presumably workerd supports resource quotas somehow?

>> What are some ideas for UI Visual Affordances to solve for bad UX due to slow browser tabs and extensions?

>> UBY: Browsers: Strobe the tab or extension button when it's beyond (configurable) resource usage thresholds

>> UBY: Browsers: Vary the {color, size, fill} of the tabs according to their relative resource utilization
