JIT Compilation Is a Lie. Here’s the 5-Microsecond Truth.
For decades, we’ve accepted that Just-In-Time compilation means trading startup latency for execution speed. But what if that trade-off is a lie? By leveraging copy-and-patch compilation, JIT can achieve microsecond-scale speeds, fundamentally breaking the bottleneck that has held back databases and runtime systems. Here’s why 5 microseconds changes everything.
