Lazy compilation (replacement to snapshots) #132

@playXE

Description

@playXE

Snapshots are cool but they tend to consume some heap memory and require a fully initialized heap. When we will switch to Comet as our GC we should replace snapshots with lazy init.

Pros:

  • Same fast startup time
  • Less memory consumption. Memory is allocated on demand
  • Simplify code base. Snapshots require a lot of maintenance and it is quite hard to debug them.

Cons:

  • No way to create a fully initialized VM instance on the fly
