It's mostly off topic of course. What would it take to compile java down into object code (.o files)? It's not being done...but I wonder why? I don't care if I have to compile for each platform...if I compile just for win95 80% of my users will enjoy a tremendous speedup.... On a similar level, is this what JIT compilers do? If so, could not someone write a JIT that produces an ordinary exe? I must be missing something here.... Looking for enlightenment...
