		do_not_redeem 7 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: An Attempt to Catch Up with JIT Compilers Now the money question: can anyone come up with a benchmark where, due to the JIT, C++/CLI runs faster than normal C++ compiled for the same CPU?

Writing a program where a jit version is faster than the aot version is just an exercise in knowing the limitations of AOT.

People have been doing runtime code generation for a very long time for exactly this reason.

A general implementation faster than, say, g++ is a completely different beast.
