Why is JIT compiled bytecode not cached?
843811Jul 9 2001 — edited Jul 11 2001I wonder why JIT compiled bytecode is not cached. The CLR with .NET apparently cached MSIL code so successive executions doesn't have to do the JIT compilation all over again. Why is this approach not used by the JVM? I would think it would give a considerable performance burst, but maybe that is not the case?
