Parallel Perl – autoparallelizing interpreter with JIT
Summary
The article introduces Parallel Perl (pperl), a Perl 5 interpreter designed in Rust with autoparallelization and a Cranelift-based JIT, driven by AI experiments. It covers features like Auto-FFI, a bytecode cache, daemonization, and a navigator/orchestrator concept, plus a CAN-bus-based home automation ecosystem (WHIP) as real-world validation of the approach and performance gains.
