Wouldn't that be even slow though? Not only is it CPS code, but it's a program being interpreted by CPS code. I think I see what you're getting at though. Sound

Wouldn't that be even slow though? Not only is it CPS code, but it's a program being interpreted by CPS code. I think I see what you're getting at though. Sounds neat; I definitely have a lot of new ideas for implementing CPS in a performant way now. Outlet is a compiler which compiles straight to js, no interpretation.

Not sure; I haven't got anything to benchmark my implementation against. My suspicion is that it would be faster because you get chains of interpreted-continuations-implemented-as-interpreting-closures that call each other normally, rather than trampolining absolutely everything. But I would not be surprised if I turn out to be completely wrong about that. > Outlet is a compiler which compiles straight to js, no interpretation. Right; hence, you would have to include the implementation of the CPSed run time environment in the compiled output, just as you have to include the extra trampoline function when you do the current CPS transform.
