Note that you don't get the full tracing JIT for free with JVM. As in the
RPython implementation at the first approximation would just directly
translate to JVM bytecode and be happy (and slow). To add a tracing JIT for
the JVM you need some significant work, see antonio cuni's thesis for his
work on .NET
