/*
* model-worker.js — one model, one worker, one WASM heap.
*
* This file exists because of a hard limit: ONNX Runtime stages model weights
* through a 32-bit WASM heap capped at 4 GB, even when inference itself runs on
* the GPU. Whisper's fp16 encoder is 1.2 GB and NLLB is another 0.9 GB, and
* loading both into one heap fails — first as an opaque `Aborted()`, then, with
* smaller weights, as a load that simply never returns.
*
* A Web Worker gets its own ONNX Runtime instance and therefore its own heap.
* Two workers means two ceilings instead of one, so both models can run at the
* quality we actually want. Keeping inference off the main thread also stops
* the level meter from stuttering every time a sentence is decoded.

* WebGPU when there is a real adapter, WASM when there is not.
*
* device:'webgpu' was hard-coded, which is safe on Apple Silicon where Metal
* is always there. On Windows Chromium disables WebGPU on blocklisted drivers,
* software adapters, old Intel iGPUs and over Remote Desktop — and with no
* fallback that is not "slower speech recognition", it is NO speech
* recognition, which is the whole app. WASM is several times slower but it
* runs; the choice is reported so the operator log says which one is in use.
