And I also really liked this talk. Maybe because I have some experience in compiler construction. Some plus, minus, zero observations: + no intensive optimization (difficult in dynamic OO-code) o hidden classes (can't tell yet, I would have used a different implementation) - coupling of code generator to syntax tree (there are tools doing much better) - no byte code (makes porting difficult, would have been simple) - GC times (OK for interactive use, but slow anyway) Well, V8 is in an early stage. Seems like very good work so far but still a lot of work to do. virtuPIC I also attended the GDD. And I also really liked this talk. Maybe because I have some experience in compiler construction.

Well, V8 is in an early stage. Seems like very good work so far but still a lot of work to do.
