Alas, as of last month we changed Pallene's compiler and it now generates C gotos for control flow. ( ^ _ ^ メ ) It helped with certain optimizations...
We switched from a hierarchical internal representation to a flat one, with gotos. Made it easier to write textbook otimization algorithms. In theory we could try to reconstruct the if and while statements when it's time to emit C, but gotos are more straightforward now.
This sounds like it could compete with V8 at some point in the next few years. Honestly it could be a game changer. Looking forward to watching its progress.
