I have been planing a bit with writing to tree-il to execute on the VM. Since my language has a return statement I have been using prompts when writing to tree-il. I was wondering if there is an overhead issue with this. Is there? If so, I was wondering if there is some prompt pattern that the CPS or later phases would optimize out, (Random guess: CPS passes the continuation to lambdas. Is that right?)
Comment?
