Re: What are the disadvantages of using jikes instead of javac?

[Uncle George]

I think this is just passing the buck. Javac should do its 'optimizations' (
whatever they may be )  irrespective of the fact that a JIT might be there (
or any other accellerator/translator ). Nor is there any guarantee that a
JIT will optimize anything in its translations.
