Streamline the Build: Optimize Early
Replacing direct system calls with hypervisor calls optimizes operations, highlighting the importance of integrating changes into the compiler rather than relying on complicated transpilers. This process underscores the challenges of deconstructing and reconstructing bytecode in legacy systems. Instead of creating a cumbersome 3000-line transpiler to adapt existing code, a more efficient approach is to modify the compiler directly, resulting in a concise 300-line diff. This shift not only simplifies the process but also enhances code clarity and maintainability.
