It's really unfortunate that libcpu didn't take off. Last I checked, they got nowhere with no contributors, and now their site 503s. It was an interesting project.

While not completely static, some modern emulators do use dynamic recompilation (essentially JIT) instead, which gives you more information to work with and lets you generate more optimized code. You can always fall back to interpreted code

I only have two problems with this: It's $7, and it requires iOS 5. Now this might not be a problem for newer iPad owners but I still have no reason to upgrade my first-gen to iOS 5.
