I did not know Stalin could compile to LLVM bytecode. I thought it could only compile to C. It takes a while to compile code but the compiled code is blazing fast, that too, without type annotations.

Is the LLVM support new ? Then I am pleased that Stalin development has become active again.

Another fast scheme is Mosh-scheme and Ypsilon, the latter compiles to native code directly.

It looks like he's saying you can use LLVM to JIT compile the C that gets generated from the Scheme code.
Oh! In that case I totally misunderstood.
