Calling stacktrace() is slow, but we need to do it. Can we speed it up? Can we build an alternative?
[ ] Q. how slow is slow?
[ ] any prior work in Julia on speeding it up? when Ashton mentioned the slowdown in his talk, Jeff B gave a quick "yeah sorry!" , maybe he has tips for improvements
[ ] how crazy is it to build our own stack? what if programmers gave instructions (a list somewhere) and we preprocessed the code to maintain context for interesting functions?
