Tucker is working on making the compiler faster, by porting it from
Jython to Java.  Expect to see that in the nightly builds in a week
or so.  We're hopeful that that will reduce both the raw execution
time, and the memory requirements (thereby reducing execution time
because of the gc overhead and, depending on the memory load, vm swap
time).

If the compiler is under review/change .. would it be feasible/ advantageous to use
MTASC opensource compiler?  http://www.mtasc.org

It's an interesting idea. It has a license (GPL) that would prevent some corporations from using OpenLaszlo. And it would also complicate our build and testing to introduce non-JVM code into the system. But both of those may be surmountable. Max Carlson has been talking to the developer, and we are also investigating whether we can modify OpenLaszlo to use MTASC if it's present.

Best,
Oliver
