Hi,

Back in the early days SUN was already talking
about Java on in CPU. Interestingly this happened:

The most prominent use of Jazelle DBX is by
manufacturers of mobile phones to increase the
execution speed of Java ME games and applications.
A Jazelle-aware Java virtual machine (JVM) will
attempt to run Java bytecode in hardware, while
returning to the software for more complicated,
or lesser-used bytecode operations. ARM claims that
approximately 95% of bytecode in typical program
usage ends up being directly processed in the hardware.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazelle

So in the 90's we had first internet, and then
in the 00's we had mobile phones. The 10's had
big data and early deep leearning.

But Python is still slow as fuck in the 20's.
They should invent a CPU that can do Pantilope,
i.e. direct executon of Python.

Bye

      Is SWI-Prolog backward oriented or forward oriented? (Was: www.softwarepreservation.org is less boring than Jeff Barnett) Mild Shock <janburse@fastmail.fm> - 2025-06-29 13:05 +0200
