Do you have example code? Using emscripten::val with strings will have a 
very high overhead in terms of moving strings into and out of the 
Emscripten heap. If you're just looking at exposing large homogenous arrays 
of int's/floats/doubles you can use ArrayBuffer based views into the 
Emscripten heap.
