I also stumbled onto this in my blog reading today.  This is similar to what we 
do but we throw generics into the mix (so the Function delegate is strongly 
typed) and we also inline the test (IOW, a highly optimized CheckFunctionCache 
in the terms of the blog entry).  Of course the tests disappear when we're 
strongly typed.  Then we use this for more than just method dispatch.

I too am looking forward to the next blog entry :)

Recently I found this interesting mail buried in mono-devel-list.

To put this in context, Jim presented IronPython 0.2 at PyCon on 2004-03-24.

By the way, I'm eagerly waiting for the next part of DLR series in
Jim's blog! It would be especially interesting to read about above
aspects of DLR, caching generated function stubs.
