What are your thoughts about how this might most effectively and efficiently be achieved? Add compact, typed arrays to Perl 5. Remove polymorphism from the Perl 5 ops and add it to SV and descendents. (C++ may be a better option here than C.) Add a tracing JIT. Iterate on that for a few years. I'd love to get it done and released at YAPC 2013, which will hopefully be held here in Austin. Invent a time machine and send the code back from 2023. Who else should I try to contact directly?
