Issues

• Security: bend --publish reads and uploads files outside the project directory via climbing foreign imports

• Python target: a first pass, preliminary results, and the comp.ts cap

  bendlang/bend#1827 · Filter by author AFDudley opened on Oct 22, 2026

• Device lane spill: a loop at the exact fill depth spills and restores the whole stack on every call (~200x slower)

  bendlang/bend#1790 · Filter by author Lorenzobattistela opened on Oct 20, 2026

• A do-block bind or let without its type annotation reports an unrelated error

• IO.model: a pure interpreter for laws about a program’s observable IO behavior

  bendlang/bend#1784 · Filter by author viridale opened on Oct 20, 2026

• Calling a def written below its caller reports "an unfilled law is a dead claim", not the ordering rule

• A tiled matmul in Bend runs about 4x slower than the same kernel handwritten in CUDA: where the time goes

• CUDA: the leaves of a balanced fork tree land on threads in an order that changes from run to run, so a layout cannot be coalesced

• The test and perf gates run ! on Metal only; CUDA-specific behaviour goes unnoticed

  bendlang/bend#1779 · Filter by author nuxyel opened on Oct 20, 2026

• CUDA: Array.new inside a bang fills the new block in one loop on one lane (~4.6 ns a cell)

  bendlang/bend#1778 · Filter by author nuxyel opened on Oct 20, 2026

• A safe way to give a fork tree's leaves disjoint parts of one Array to write (the counterpart of #1376)

  bendlang/bend#1777 · Filter by author nuxyel opened on Oct 19, 2026

• CUDA: the error poll in every flat loop (err_spun) makes ptxas yield on each iteration; tight loops run up to 20x slower

• Buffered Chan receives scale quadratically on the Node host

• C backend: a memory-bound loop's speed depends on unrelated code (flipping BLK_SHR in a program that never forks makes it 10-18% faster)

• Proposal for bend.ts: content-keyed template instance names, for parallel and cached checking
