Play it? Probably not. But you could probably run a low-end server with 
one for a couple of your friends. I'm going to do some benchmarking and 
see what the loss would be with K6-friendly Karma libs at some point.

GCC's code generator is bad enough that I can't imagine supporting the 
K6 is going to make it that much worse.
