Kasteran Compiler Pipeline Performance Across Program Sizes

Compilation pipeline timing data for the Kasteran programming language compiler measures per-stage latency across program sizes from 10 to 1000 lines. The dataset includes bytecode virtual machine execution timing for language constructs like function calls, branching, and loops. It was authored by Alpasan, Lois-Kleinner of The Anticloud and last updated on 2026-06-24.

Use Cases

• Benchmark lexing and parsing latency based on program size mentioned in the description
• Analyze type-checking and bytecode compilation efficiency across different code constructs
• Profile virtual machine execution timing for operations like pattern matching and closures
• Compare performance of language features such as pipe chains and scatter operations

Strengths

• Measures per-stage latency for five distinct compilation phases: lexing, parsing, HIR lowering, type-checking, and bytecode compilation.
• Includes timing data for program sizes ranging from 10 to 1000 lines, providing a scale of complexity.
• Benchmarks execution timing for multiple specific language constructs, including function calls, branching, and loops.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
