- Disable WebKitGTK's WASM OMG JIT tier, which leaks native memory when repeatedly recompiling wa-sqlite's module and eventually OOM-kills the webview process (upstream bug webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319572). - Fall back to IDBBatchAtomicVFS when OPFS is unavailable, since WebKitGTK (Tauri on Linux) doesn't implement navigator.storage.getDirectory and OPFSCoopSyncVFS's worker would otherwise throw on init.

Note that the WebKit flag appears to be required due to a bug in WebKit that causes constant spiked CPU and a moderately quick memory leak. I have confirmed this WebKit bug exists in the version of WebKit provided with Fedora 44, but have not tested on other distros or versions of Fedora
It looks like this could be the same crash that #956 is experiencing, so perhaps this could help there as well.
I have also filed a bug with WebKit that includes an example script to replicate the CPU spike and memory leak outside without Thunderbolt context: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319572
