Well, yes. How SBCL uses the type annotations as well as type inferencing to completely eliminate type checking throughout sections of code and generating highly efficient assembly code makes looking at the assembly output of SBCL especially interesting to look at. It gives you good feedback whether your type annotations had the desired optimization outcomes. I didn't want to indicate that other Lisp implementations wouldn't offer native compilation or a disassemble function.
- lispm 6y agoMany implementations also give us type inferencing and optimizations, but usually not compile time type checking like in SBCL. I would also kind of think that the level of type inferencing in SBCL is greater.
