That reminds me:


The same David Unger from Berkley referenced above does a fair bit of
analysis of the tradeoffs between byte coded and native code
implementations of Smalltalk in his book about SOAR (Smalltalk on a RISC).
I think the book is called something like "SOAR". Actually I guess it is
more a presentation of why native is better, but probably still worth
looking at.
