I’ve been thinking about Fil-C as a compile target for high level language implementations that want decent performance with LLVM optimizations. You get GC for “free”, source compatibility with a large fraction of existing C/C++ libraries, and lots of control over memory layout and allocation. You’d still have to build the green threads / process runtime though. Maybe go would be an easier pathway since you get their green threads and GC for free.
