It is not a very nifty JIT. It can transform some simple loops into vectorized expressions. And it removes the overhead from indexing with doubles. But if you are among those that do n = length(x) m = 0 for i = 1.0 : n m = m + x(i) end m = m / n instead of m = mean(x) it will be nifty enough. > All lot of folks seem to think that the only reason to "vectorize" code > in MATLAB, numpy, etc, is for better performance. If MATLAB now has a > good JIT, then there is no point -- I think that's a mistake. Fortran 90/95 has array slicing as well.
