You don't need to use it that long. I only gave a pessimistic estimate on
when all JIT compilation stops. Surely the most used features get
recompiled faster. The second use of any Java function should already
trigger the JIT in some cases. This is a bit unfortunate for desktop
applications because the first impression is that everything lags. But
the thing is, if you try something TWICE or more, it's orders of
magnitude faster.
I should amend that to saying I don't want to wait at all for my editor to work.
I go in and out of it too often. It's why I use a small, natively compiled
editor. It loads instantly. Even on DOS <g>.
And frankly, it's retarded to compile the same program over and over, every time
you use it. Especially when the cost of that I pay for every time I run it.
