No, but without knowing the cause there is little I can do...

I use firefox only, and it has worked all through the development cycle.
I also use uBlock origin. I was on a linux, though I don't see how that would matter.

The good news is: I can reproduce the issue in Safari: it fails with a 'out of memory'
So I'll do some testing on safari. First web search is not making me
optimistic, seems safari and wasm are not a happy couple.
