Okay so like... Just how slow is Free?
I& #39;m toying with the idea of re-making a design language we have and expressing it as an algebra in Free.
But then I& #39;m essentially going to be lifting a turing complete language into this context and I have performance concerns.

But the hope is that those performance concerns will still be better than the current approach which involves a lisp interpreter and an xml AST.
The proposed solution would take a JSON encoded program an evaluate it as an algebra.
That said, it would be a challenging thing to encode, and I guess would of necessity encode as a graph?
Because it would have to have cycles.

ANYONE EVER WRITE A TURING COMPLETE JSON ENCODABLE ALGEBRA BEFORE LOL?!
Nobody: "What are you doing?"
Me: "Inventing a programming language."
Nobody: "Cool, what& #39;s it compile to?"
Me: "JSON"
Nobody: "Fuck You."

What, your programming languages aren& #39;t arbitrarily serializable into essentially every serialization format?
Fucking casual.
Fucking casual.
