Being that also the topic of my PhD with Marea, I would say that I love the
idea hahaha. Something that VAST has that is very cool is that you can
bootstrap images from scratch with what you need and then use the
"Packager" to reduce even the "unused" code. A few examples we have:
1) Seaside running in 3MB image
2) TCP/HTTP server running in 1MB image
3) VM benchmarks running in a 500KB image (used in the above JIT
presentation)

So yeah... so many nice research projects :)
