Thanks Alon :). Caiiycuk, is the codebase you are trying to run SFE on available publicly? Can you post the github link here if so? If not, take a look at the generated JS on which you are going to run SFE on. Make sure that there is a top level global variable called asm. If the asm.js is wrapped, then you might have to save off the asm.js (the part of the code that contains a top level variable called asm) to a separate file and try running SFE on that to see the potential size reduction.
