When Intel will realize that 99% of its users are running VM
Which one?
Any implementation of a controlled environment is a virtual machine.
Sometimes it is explicitely defined, such as in clisp, parot or jvm, but
more often it is implicit, such as in sbcl, or worse, developed in an
ad-hoc way in applications (eg. written in C++).
But if you had to implement a VM directly in hardware, which one (of the
several varieties) would you choose?
And having chosen one, how would that impact the performance of a language
with an incompatible VM?
Perhaps processors executing native code as it is now, aren't such a bad
idea.
