I'm surprised to read about this direction, however little practiced it may be. JIT never was for the fastest of applications but in-time optimization should (and has, in some occasions) reach and even exceed the speeds of precompiled ('native'). Simply because the JIT optimizer has access to the actual runtime data that is being fed to the Tight Loop of Performance Bottleneck, and can do local and specific optimization for that run alone. AOT optimized binary can only do generic optimizations in theory.
