Better compiling?

Both in code protection scheme and execution speed

A more "compiler" maybe be for future holywood?!
One optimization I can think of that should help is constant-folding of table lookups. All it should need is a hidden getter method that's accessible only to the bytecode compiler. After all, global variables and functions just look up the names in a hidden table internally. (At least I think Andreas said so.)
I'm on registered MorphOS using FlowStudio.
