Yep, that was one of the original ideas with using LLVM. The actual runtime that's needed is pretty small and the code optimizes well, so the output ends up being very close to if you'd written the code in, say C++, yourself.

But that said, I haven't actually gotten to writing the 'exporter' yet (up to this point I've mostly been focused on usability and stability), so I can understand that it's not entirely clear.
