LLVM is a new infrastructure designed for compile-time, link-time, runtime, and "idle-time" optimization of programs from arbitrary programming languages.  LLVM is written in C++ and has been developed over the past 3 years at the University of Illinois.  It currently supports compilation of C and C++ programs, using front-ends derived from GCC 3.4.  New front-ends are being written for Java bytecode and CAML.
