[webkit-dev] Some text about the B3 compiler

[Filip Pizlo]

Hi everyone,

We’ve been working on a new compiler backend for the FTL JIT, which we call B3.  It stands for “Bare Bones Backend”.  We recently enabled it on X86/Mac, and we’re working hard to enable it on other platforms.

If you’re interested in how it works, I’ve started writing documentation.  I’ll be adding more to it soon!
