User.js: how is this benchmark able to run with config entries set to block them?

This benchmark is supposed to test webassembly rendering of a pdf.

If I set javascript.options.wasm = false it falls back to asm.js and if I set javascript.options.asmjs = false it still runs.

Developer Tools > Web Console shows that webassembly does respond to the wasm preference however the asmjs pref doesn't disable the test.

I try to block both because nothing on the web uses these technologies yet except for crypto miners.

You seem to fall back to a baseline, like here.

Thanks, @Atavic. That indeed seems to be the case. Closing this issue.

That's very interesting. You have an eagle eye @Atavic
