SX bytecode VM executing: compile → run → correct results
End-to-end pipeline working:
Python compiler.sx → bytecode → OCaml VM → result
Verified: (+ (* 3 4) 2) → 14 ✓
(+ 0 1 2 ... 49) → 1225 ✓
Benchmark (500 iterations, 50 additions each):
CEK machine: 327ms
Bytecode VM: 145ms
Speedup: 2.2x
VM handles: constants, local variables, global variables,
primitive calls, jumps, conditionals, closures (via NativeFn
wrapper), define, return.
Protocol: (vm-exec {:bytecode (...) :constants (...)})
- Compiler outputs clean format (no internal index dict)
- VM converts bytecode list to int array, constants to value array
- Stack-based execution with direct opcode dispatch
The 2.2x speedup is for pure arithmetic. For aser (the real
target), the speedup will be larger because aser involves:
- String building (no CEK frame allocation in VM)
- Map/filter iterations (no frame-per-iteration in VM)
- Closure calls (no thunk/trampoline in VM)
Next: compile and run the aser adapter on the VM.
