💡 What: Removed redundant self.frames.last_mut() lookups in runtime/vm/src/executor.rs inside control flow opcodes (Jump, JumpIfTrue, JumpIfFalse, Try, EndTry).
🎯 Why: In the hot interpreter loop, fetching the current frame inside these opcodes was doing unnecessary bounds checks and method calls when a valid mutable frame reference was already acquired at the start of the loop iteration. This reduces overhead in the fetch-decode-execute loop.
📊 Impact: Faster evaluation of tight loops and control flow structures due to reduced pointer chasing and bounds checking overhead on the hottest execution paths.
🔬 Measurement: Verify by running cargo test -p techscript_vm or using the internal VM profiler on standard examples.
