What ever happened/happens to Stalin [1], the scheme compiler? That's supposed to be a real Smart Compiler, right?
It's so mysterious... It's developed by this one guy. The only thing you can find on his website is a tarball [2]. It's like programming mythology.

- rayiner 13y agoIt's a test bed for aggressive control-flow based optimization a for Scheme. It's not a practical production compiler--too slow and requires whole program analysis.
