Cheerp 1.2 – C++ to JavaScript: faster than Emscripten with dynamic memory

Is it possible to embed llvm into the v8 engine? If so, all we need to do is to compile c/c++ codes into llvm byte codes, then import it as js modules, like this: `import {LibSass} from './libsass.bin'`.

It is possible, but I am not sure if LLVM is that "open" and "free", so we can make a web standard out of it. I think Web Assembly will be the similar thing (low-level code for a browser).
