IIRC (it's been years), a highly-conformant Perl5/Perl6/python/javascript regex engine core in SWI Prolog was concise and performant. Like "wow, it just one short file" concise. And "KISS competitive-with-little-optimization" performant. Modulo memory halo. IIRC, far more effort went into bootstrapping grammars and creating testing infrastructure. It helped warped my perspective on how concise and pretty compiler guts could/should be. |
