Details the progress of the typescript-go project, which compiles Go libraries directly into C++. It achieves up to 1.7x faster single-core performance at the same RSS memory footprint. The project translates 320k lines of Go code into 600k lines of C++, passing 90k tests with 98% conformance, and allows direct calls from C++ without needing cgo, RPC, or serialization.
