Hi Felix - I work on the mips port, and can answer some of your questions:
1. We currently pass all the tests. 2. I can't speak for the v8-team. This post from Mikail Naganov may clarify the current situation: http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users/msg/f9946f247ac27541 3. We are in-progress with Crankshaft, have it partially working, and running some of the v8-benchmark tests successfully. I am guessing that we are a couple months from having something in releasable form, and further optimizations will continue well after that. We will likely start submitting our Crankshaft code upstream to the v8-team before that timeframe. All our work is done open source on github here: https://github.com/paul99/v8m-rb We also maintain versions of v8 for the mips-android builds. Those will continue to use the "classic" code generator for v8 (for higher performance), until we have our Crankshaft code ready to release. If you have need for a non-android version of v8 for mips, we can talk about which version/branch would be most appropriate for you. 4. We have not planned to do this, but it is an interesting idea. As we get further along with Crankshaft work, we may do such a thing. Hope this helps, paul On Jun 28, 2011, at 12:52 AM, Felix Wan wrote: > Hi gurus, > > There are a lot MIPS port work taking place.
