Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

A New Backend for Standard ML of New Jersey
You could take a look at GRIN, which is an IR especially made for optimizing functional languages before passing them to something like LLVM. (keep in mind that that project is still very early in development) See also their paper.

Haskell compiled onto LLVM increase performance?
There is the GRIN optimizer that is implemented based on Urban Boqist PhD thesis. It works really well with LLVM because GRIN removes all indirect calls so it allows LLVM to do its job really well. But Boq GRIN PhD does not tell how to support the complex GHC primop and RTS features. That's why I have another direction as well.

Next-gen Haskell Compilation Techniques
Yes, unlifted boxed STG values does not have thunk checks. The STG to Cmm codegen generates only a single ADT tag lookup code. You can check the generated ASM code: https://github.com/csabahruska/manual-stg-experiment https://github.com/csabahruska/manual-stg-experiment/blob/master/StgSample.hs#L390-L391
