Re: Supercompiled Perl

  Tom,

  The discussion isn't directly related to AI with Perl, but I do think it
should be of interest to perl-ai folks.  The primary reason for this
(apart from the coolness factor) is that, as Valentin mentioned in his
earlier message, significant speed-ups may lead to changes in programming
paradigms that may very well be of great utility for AI programming.  At
some point, increases in speed tend to lead to phase transitions where
qualitatively new things become feasible.   

  Besides, the list has been pretty quiet lately.  Of course we can take
perl-ai off the address list if you guys still think it's a waste of time
/ bandwidth.
