evaluator: implement new evaluator as the basis for performance and other improvements #2884

Open myitcv opened 6 months ago

myitcv commented 6 months ago

This is a placeholder issue for the implementation of a new version of the core CUE evaluator, a version that will enable (further) performance improvements referenced in https://github.com/cue-lang/cue/issues/2850. It will also serve as a better platform for fixing any correctness issues.

The new evaluator will not be enabled by default.

The top of stack for this change is currently https://review.gerrithub.io/c/cue-lang/cue/+/1174341 (there are many changes below it that have already been submitted). We will update the issue description with more details and better links shortly.

We're leaving this issue open for the time being to track the various P0/P1 bugs that remain, even though we're already releasing a version of the new evaluator in alpha.2 (https://github.com/cue-lang/cue/issues/2886).
