Subject: Ahead of time compilation?
Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2018 18:16:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180914181636.3ae6b46b@jabberwock.cb.piermont.com> (raw)
Given the recent JIT discussion, it occurs to me that a large
fraction of the elisp infrastructure in the average emacs is the
stuff that gets slurped in and undumped. Perhaps all that stuff could
get ahead of time compiled before undump for performance? Build time
isn't nearly as relevant for me as speed during execution, and on
platforms that don't have the infra, the interpreter could continue
to be use for that stuff.
