solx - new Ethereum compiler

Yes, the 2nd mention of the optimizer in the blogpost confirms: This ordering is not affected by the use of the optimizer, since it is a distinct stage of the pipeline, performed after code generation.

hello sir 🫡

good afternoon

Heey good day sir, thank you 🚀

Goodday @nebasuke , issue was from my side

Congrats on the release - and on beating solc in legacy mode! One thing I'm curious about, though. The compilation time improvements don't seem to be orders of magnitude, and the --via-ir numbers changed only slightly compared to the last measurements we made at Matter Labs. My understanding was that further --via-ir improvements were mostly frontend-bound. What's the main bottleneck at this point? Is it still the frontend, or has something else become the limiting factor?
