Just a naive benchmark for Native C, JavaScript and WASM implementations of Prime Number Generator. Not intended to be serious or/and complete assessment of the performance of the mentioned technologies.
The benchmark is computing 10⁷th prime number using Fibonacci's Trial division algorithm.
Implemented as a part of tsoding/bng project.
