Sounds like it’s similar to how LuaJIT works [0], using a machine-code handler for each VM opcode. AFAICT LuaJIT also uses a templating system to build these, except it generates them at compile-time instead of at run-time. I assume that’s easier than explicitly writing out each handler in assembly language.
