Many modern virtual machines include either a fast interpreter or a fast baseline compiler. A baseline compiler needs extra memory and is likely slower for code that is only executed once. An interpreter avoids this memory overhead and is very flexible. For example, it can quickly switch between execution modes (profiling, tracing, single-stepping, etc.). So what, then, is the state of the art of building fast interpreters?
