---IDEA---
I was wondering if we could have a bytecode DSL that would map directly to 
JVM assembler, using either Jasmin <http://jasmin.sourceforge.net/> or 
Krakatau <https://github.com/Storyyeller/Krakatau>.
Then we could define primitives using these bytecode instructions.
For eg:

(defroutine + [a b]
    (push! a)
    (push! b)
    add!
    pop!)

that could be used to call:

(+ 2 3) ;=> 5

------
We could define the lambda calculus primitives in the same way.
This would be awesome because bottlenecks could be optimized by embedding 
assembly inside Lisp itself.
We could do efficient bit-manipulation, write shader routines, and what not.

------
Thoughts?
