StaticCompiler.jl is making huge strides. 12 days ago a rewrite was merged (https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl/pull/46), and now the static compiler can allocate and use the runtime (https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl/pull/58). I would still be weary of using it too much, but hopefully optimistic of its near future.

Yeah, it's definitely in the early stages still, but this time I think there's much more infrastructure, and more people around with the right knowledge to advise on StaticCompiler's development, that I'm currently feeling pretty good about it's future.

Here's the feature roadmap https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl/issues/59 that should help people understand what currently works and what I think I can reasonably accomplish eventually
