C is designed in such a way, that designing a safe compiler without big performance penalties isn't possible. How much Fil-C is slower compared to something like GCC? 2 to 5 times slower?
- uecker 8mo agoThis is only relevant for specific types of UB, and even there it is not entirely clear. One of the main challenges is ABI compatibility and separate compilation. Both are not necessarily part of the "design of C". If you are willing to give this up, a lot can be done. Annotations are another possibility to get full memory safety without performance cost.
