| | | | | [AI summary] The article discusses the development of an Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compiler for JavaScript, leveraging precompiled inline-cache (IC) stubs. By moving runtime type binding to indirect calls, the compiler can generate static code, enabling full AOT compilation. This approach achieves significant performance improvements, with a 2.77x geometric mean speedup on various benchmarks. The article also explores further optimizations through profile-guided inlining, and compares this method with other AOT approaches like Hopc's type inference. The potential for future enhancements and the use of compiler backends derived from interpreters are also highlighted. | |

| | | The Rust programming language sent ripples through the programming community when it was first released in 2015, promising the blazing speed of lower-level programming languages without the accompanying sharp edges. Four and a half years on, many programmers still view Rust with a mix of intrigue and trepidation due to its appealing premise and notoriously difficult learning curve. We sat down with one of Cosive's Senior Developers, Sid Odgers, to talk about why he believes more programmers should take the plunge and learn Rust. | ||
