If you are doing anything realtime, it's also going to depend on your hardware as much as your software. The real answer, is it depends and it's all tradeoffs.

There's no "right" answer, but generally, you want things to be predictable (something that AOT gets you), but if your performance budget gives you the ability to stop the world and JIT (because hardware), then that's ok too.
