the purpose of this tool isn't to "accelerate" python or whatever - it's to bind cpp. > AFAICT this does not quite produce true binaries, but rather interprets C++ via Cling, is that right? yes but to be very clear: it's not designed to interpret arbitrary cpp but calls and ctors and field accesses. the point is binding. also it can use cling or clang-repl.
