One of the uses of "JIT compiler" these days is what's sometimes called a tracing JIT, like PyPy or LuaJIT or the Javascript flavor-of-the-week. That means it interprets the program while collecting execution traces to figure out the actual types the program uses at runtime, then generates machine code for those specific code paths, with some guards in case an unexpectedly typed value shows up. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
