But if it's an interactive, Forth-like system, you compile code when a word is defined, and then its callers are defined later. So you don't know in advance what arg types the word will receive. > I did not really think the "code bloat" this created would be too > great if it is limited to utilized signatures.

Dynamic dispatch isn't that bad on today's hardware, especially if your compiler does some type inference and/or can accept hints from the programmer. You won't compete with C compilers in pure performance but hopefully you're not trying to.
