Most files have a last commit message of: Nothing left can be taken away. That pretty much sums up the target for this VM.
Instruction dispatching and malloc handling were discussed here last month in http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2722383 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2722383 (Instruction dispatch is now a switch† instead of chain of if statements, malloc() results are still unchecked.)

† The switch was slower in my benchmarks last time, I don't have time to check this time.
- jsherer 15y agoHow many of the previous discussion points / issues have been changed in this release? Just the switch?
