# Claro Performance and Optimization Notes
|
|
|
|
Current release: **Claro v2026.10.20.223203**
|
|
|
|
Performance work should come after language behavior is stable and measured. Do not optimize blindly.
|
|
|
|
## Current priority
|
|
|
|
Claro's current priority is correctness, accessibility, friendly diagnostics, and reliable beginner examples.
|
|
|
|
## Before optimization work
|
|
|
|
Add:
|
|
- small benchmark scripts
|
|
- expected-output checks for benchmark examples
|
|
- a timing command or repeatable timing script
|
|
- documentation for what is being measured
|
|
|
|
## Optimization rules
|
|
|
|
- Keep beginner-visible behavior unchanged.
|
|
- Measure before and after every optimization.
|
|
- Prefer simple interpreter cleanup before complex compiler architecture.
|
|
- Do not add bytecode, JIT, or advanced compiler stages until the v1 semantics are stable.
