Could this be Javascript's GC kicking in?
What browser are you using? I've tested couple of browsers. In
general JavaScript shouldn't be a problem, from what I know
WASM only growth its memory. Library itself almost never call
malloc (so memory is always allocated). On firefox I had
problem with FPS most of a time and I'm not sure what cause
this problem (I found several bug reports which could be
related to that). Besides Firefox every web browser I tested
was based on chromium engine. I didn't see any periodic dips,
even with <200k entities.
Maybe there is some problem related to WebGL or JS Workers.
When JS side detects that WASM threads are enabled in browser
it loads multithreaded version of WASM code and spawn workers.
But overall multithreaded execution is always more stable for
me.
This is in Chrome 88.0.4324.192 on my 2015 Macbook Pro.
