Creating a JIT compiler is completely different from statically compiling code. In a JIT, you use runtime information to optimize the code. You can't do anything about this in C. -- Regards, Benjamin _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
