Cranelift is designed to do very little optimziation, in exchange for being very simple and fast compared to LLVM. Its use cases include debug builds of Rust code, JIT-ing WebAssembly (which is pre-optimized), etc.
So I would expect it to have very little overlap with deep learning. No high-level optimizations to do with matrices or dataflow or scheduling; currently no GPU backends; no integration with MLIR (though that one seems completely doable if someone put in the effort).
- bobajeff 6y agoI wonder if Cranelift would be useful for making a C++ REPL.
- ibraheemdev 6y agoHopefully it will be used as a backend for a Rust REPL.
- nly 6y agoIs cling not good enough? (It disables most optimizations) https://github.com/root-project/cling https://github.com/root-project/cling
