As the readers of this blog already know, I have been working on the CLI JIT backend for some months: last Friday, it reached an important milestone, as it is now able to produce huge speedups for a little dynamic language. To know how huge the speedup is, read on :-).

Progresses on the CLI JIT backend front
Originally published on the PyPy blog.
In the last months, I've actively worked on the CLI backend for PyPy's JIT generator, whose goal is to automatically generate JIT compilers that produces .NET bytecode on the fly.
