How about one of these next generation Forth-like languages?

I think it is not a main stream. And, my concern is performance and memory footprint. I believe pure Forth is unbeatable here.

In fact Forth is being used in bytecode translation in AVM2 , the ActionScript Virtual Machine of Adobe , which have been integrated in Tamarin. . Tamarin virtual machine will eventually replace some part of the current SpiderMonkey JS engine .
