> AFAIK there's no up-to-date comprehensive summary of the state of research on trace compilers. Most papers don't even scratch the surface of the challenges you'll face when building a production-quality trace compiler.

In general, there are few good + comprehensive resources for advanced compilation techniques. I would gladly fork over $$$ if you wrote a textbook on tracing compilers aimed at people who have expert-level knowledge in more traditional compilation methods (aka, not JIT).
