I want to
overthrow this concept, and move almost all VM functionality into
smalltalk without losing speed, and by gaining a flexibility and
scalability at same time.
Here I see things a little different. I mean that is a good thing to hope
for in the future, but I'm a fan of smaller bite-sized chunks. I think a
good first step would be to be to (1) make a DSL-style system in Smalltalk
for creating assembly code (think Slang but without the limitations) and (2)
going right to the assembly, no translations to more-limited-then-asm
intermediates like (especially) C.
I'm not sure how much of this has been done already, but I think we have a
lot of options today (e.g. Pepsi, maybe some code from Exupery and maybe
Huemul) to explore this.
