Interesting approach using a JIT compiler. It says compilation is slow, is there a way to persist the compiled code and load it later (for example for CLIs or faster redeployments)?

It's called AoT....

  • The key feature seems to be the dynamic nature while still being fast. Sure, they could also build it as a compiler that does all mentioned in the article and then dump optimized Go code. Maybe even use the Go PGO instead of their own. But this is another approach, what I mean is caching of the JIT generated code to avoid doing expensive part again while still being dynamic and adapt to incoming messages.

  • No, I think they want Profile-Guided Optimization. I think the C# AoT mode uses the results of a JIT first run.
