Systems and methods of optimizing a visual programming language dataflow diagram are disclosed herein. A set of work units of the visual programming language dataflow diagram is parsed. A subset of the set of work units that follow a programming pattern is identified. The programming pattern can be a set of criteria satisfied by the subset of work units. A comprehension work unit that maps to the programming pattern can be selected. In one embodiment, the comprehension work unit can be a run-length comprehension work unit, a join comprehension work unit, a choice comprehension work unit, or a merge comprehension work unit. The subset of work units in the visual programming language dataflow diagram is replaced with the comprehension work unit. Imperative computer code can then be generated from the visual programming language dataflow diagram.
