Have you considered using the LLVM jit compiler for CTFE? We already have an LLVM front end. This would mean that CTFE would depend on LLVM, which is a large dependency, but it would create very fast, optimized code for CTFE on any platform.


I can't help but laugh at this after the above posts...

I totally missed when Stefan said:

Also and perhaps more importantly I am sick and tired of hearing "why don't you use ldc/llvm?" all the time...

That is pretty hilarious :) I suppose I just demonstrated the reason he is attempting to create an x86 jitter so he will have an interface that could be extended to something like LLVM. Wow.
