Oh, I can see applications where the performance of tight loops could be important, from games to intensive math applications to something involving a lot of graphics manipulation. Currently, Elm isn't a very good fit for any of these, but with the proposed changes they could be. Then its main limitation other than anything involving libraries) would be running on parallel cores, but as that is a limitation of JavaScript, I don't see it getting fixed anytime soon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
