- chasd00 9mo agoWouldn't compilation during the build process be ROT? As in, "Right On Time" compilation? Build is where the compilation step is usually performed.
- jeroenhd 9mo agoI don't think iOS does any on-device or in-app-store compilation since Apple deprecated Bitcode.
- kachapopopow 9mo agoAOT is unique because you want to compile it with all the capabilities your device has, so there still has to be some complication done, especially when you have processors that have brand new instructions to make operations significantly more efficient.
- MaxBarraclough 9mo agoThat's not the approach they're referring to, iOS doesn't support that. They're referring to delivering the compiled native code as part of the app package.
