Hello WebKitten:
I am a newbie here. Now I am investigating if we can use LLVM
as our JIT system of Javascript engine to get a faster Javascript
engine? I had
searched webkit-dev maillist (probably I missed some previous related
discussion ), and it seems there is only some discussions about
translating
llvm IR to javascript.
I know the speed of javascript engine is a fight among V8, SFX
etc. Several famous companies have already done a lot of thing on it.
But I will
think that why we can not translate the javascript to the IR of llvm
since LLVM have a good support for JIT system. Is it feasible? Could
we get a
faster JIT engine based on LLVM? I like to get your suggestion or
advice about that. Is there some special considerations or obstacle
for such way.
Any discussion about my stupid thinking is very appreciate.
Thanks
MK
