Hardware is connected through system bus and system bus deliver data and control signal

JIT: so you want to be faster than an interpreter on modern CPUs…
Since my previous blog entry about JIT compiler for PostgreSQL, sadly not much happened due to a lack of time, but still some things were done (biggest improvement was the port to ARM64, a few optimizations, implementing more opcodes…). But I am often asking myself how to really beat the interpreter… And on “modern” CPUs, with a well written interpreter, that’s far more complicated than many would imagine. So in order to explain all this and show how I am planning to improve performance (possibly of the interpreter itself too, thus making this endeavor self-defeating), let’s first talk about…
