Factor's optimizing compiler generates machine code for x86 (32 and 64-bit), as well as PowerPC (32-bit only). The implementation is found in basis/compiler/
and basis/cpu/
. The compiler uses SSA form internally, and performs various advanced optimizations, such as Type inference, Escape analysis, and so on.
