I'm just curious; are there any benchmarks about how compiling interpreters for dynamic languages with Clang affects the performance of these languages? Do those interpreters even compile?

Here's a blog entry Compiling Python using Clang. Sounds like little or no improvement in speed. Better diagnostics and faster compile though.
