- aw1621107 8y agoLooks like things are still compiled to Dalvik bytecode for distribution, but get recompiled to native code upon installation. I didn't know that; I don't follow Adnroid closely, so the particulars of the runtime aren't something I'm familiar with. Still, TIL. Thanks!
- monocasa 8y agoThey added another JIT too. So first pass is the AOT installation binary, but it'll JIT traces too.
