Regex is the similarly terse, and many popular languages make use of it. Do you replace regex syntax with much more verbose function calls? Also, several posts above mention how the interpreter fits inside the CPU L1 cache for maximum performance. I'm guessing the terse syntax helps keep it small enough.

- kthielen 9y agoYou know what's faster than having an interpreter for your program that fits entirely in L1 cache? Not having the interpreter at all.
