Abstract: "As software becomes larger, programming languages become higher-level, and processors continue to fail to be clocked faster, we'll increasingly require compilers to reduce code bloat, eliminate abstraction penalties, and exploit interesting instruction sets. At the same time, compiler exe...

How can one write blazing fast yet useful compilers (for lazy pure functional languages)?
L 40 pts 55 comments by habibalamin Jun 7, 2025 askcompilersperformance Systems / Low-Level / OSProgramming Languages / CS TheoryData / Databases / Infrastructure thread
I've decided enough is enough and I want to write my own compiler (seems I caught a bug and lobste.rs is definitely not discouraging it). The language I have in mind is a basic (lazy?) statically-typed pure functional programming language with do notation and records (i.e. mostly Haskell-lite). I...

Would it be useful to folks to have a compilers tag? I'm certainly interested in reading articles about compilers but their harder to find when scattered across different languages or in the catch-all compsci tag. Here's the [original suggestion for this tag](https://lobste.rs/s/hpsyea/why_is_it_...
