To be honest, I don't know much about JIT, as well as Parrot yet. I just did what Brent asked for. And it seems to me as if I overlooked the thread where Brent explained why he made up his mind to disabling JIT on Win32. Is there anybody who could drop a couple of lines on account of this question while Brent is unget-at-able?
