New Paper from Mozilla #630

There's been a very recent paper by Mozilla about "CacheIR", which reminded me a little of the upcoming uops (linear IR, the operations replace higher level ones, with guards, constructed after getting feedback from the runtime types, also speeds up interpreter). I thought you might be interested: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3617651.3622979

Thanks Carl.

The CacheIR does looks similar to our uops and to some of the ideas I've been looking at for handling specialization of LOAD_ATTR and CALL, but more coherent and principled.
