I think dart2native is very exciting news. I had to give it a try right away, compiling a little Dart program that reads through a big word vector file (typically > 1 GB) and prints some statistics. The execution times, however, were a bit disappointing. The compiled native used real 0m37.340s (user 0m35.359s), while the old non-compiled used only real 0m23.449s (user 0m23.894s). This was on a MacBook Air. I hope, and believe, that dart2native will generate faster binaries before long. ;-)
