I was specifically thinking about this https://www.roc-lang.org/platforms

I'm not an expert. I haven't actually used it, but I have been following it a bit. Roc splits things into apps and platforms. When you implement a platform you're responsible for implementing all (or the subset you want to provide) of the I/O primitives and memory allocators.

>Discussions about efficient code kind of avoid the topic, I don't believe we are in a situation where multithreading is relevant, the bloat is on another level

Case does talk about other kinds of bloat. Things like structuring things so blocking operations can be batched etc...
