...ing is that I'd like as much code as possible to be open to optimization by LLVM. If the core of my runtime library can't be expressed in LLVM then it can't be optimized by it either. Ideally, everything except the glue for system traps, interrupts and the like should be expressible in LLVIS. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
