## Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
MuPack and MuIL are interpreted representations. That means we do not compile them to assembly and, in certain cases,
|
||||
we have made design decisions that favor correctness over performance. The toolchain has a built in verifier that
|
||||
enforces these design decisions at runtime. This is unlike most runtimes that leverage an independent static
|
||||
verification step to avoid runtime penalties. That said, the `mu verify` command will run the verifier independently.
