1 Year of Research coming to an end. 8 Months seeing no results, Almost quitting twice. November/December of last year finally seeing a very narrow path to a universal 2x perf improvement on every modern JS parser which would take me another 4 months to build.View quoted post on X
This will land in oxc_parser fairly soon speeding up OXLint, OXFmt, Vite, Rolldown, Deno (oxc consumer) almost immediately.
In the long term it's likely that it will land in V8/SpiderMonkey/Bun/JavascriptCore/Typescript/+ Every other JS parser implementation
The wins come from a few key elements, obviously 1 novel "SIMD For Context Sensitive Languages" the other key elements take it from a 20% win e2e to a 80-200% win (99% of files will see a 80-100% perf improvement).
These key elements translate to any AST design and thus will speed up not only all JS tooling but every major browser when complete.
We're extending access to Claude Fable 5 on all paid plans through July 12.View quoted post on X
