I wonder what the speedup would be to compile the LFC as C code linked with
a javascript
library. If it was much better maybe there is a Javascript to C compiler out
there that could be used.


Or we might be able to find someone to modify our compiler's javascript
backend to emit
C instead. You'd still need a runtime library for javascript support
(definitions of primitive objects, GC, etc)
