> Some aspects are quite promising, one is to JIT compile away most of the FFI glue, another is interaction with Numpy/Scipy code. As a note, both of these things are available in Julia. The built-in `ccall` allows FFI calls without glue code and at the same cost as a shared library function call from C (no ctypes/libffi overhead). The PyCall package provides (damn-near magical) interoperation with any Python library.
