Echoing everyone else in this thread that Cranelift might work well for this case; just wanted to add: Cranelift is definitely not "experimental" anymore, though it is still young. It's in production in a number of places (my employer and others) and we test thoroughly, including differential fuzzing against other engines/compilers. It just got a new register allocator, and we even have some academics working on formal verification!
We'd be happy to help with any issues that arise; our Zulip instance (bytecodealliance.zulipchat.com) is probably the best place to find us.
(Disclosure: I work full-time on Cranelift, and have a ton of fun doing it)
- stormbrew 4y agofair enough! I guess I was thinking of the specific context of the rust cranelift backend, which I believe is still experimental?
- cfallin 4y agoAh, yes, that is indeed experimental, though it seems to be coming along nicely (I'm not involved but talk with the main author to support it).
