Recently I switched (so to speak) my GoAWK interpreter from using a tree-walking interpreter to a bytecode compiler with a virtual machine, and got a noticeable performance boost. Write-up here if you're interested: https://benhoyt.com/writings/goawk-compiler-vm/
TLDR: It's significantly more code, but also 10-20% faster. It'll get even faster when Go implements "switch" using jump tables (looking forward to https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/357330/). -Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
