They all have jits, but still use interpreter sometimes. Without jit to
compiler critical methods there is not way to be even remotely close to
being fast.
TYA will give you nothing - you would have to have layout of
objects/classes identical to sun ones. Implementing just jit interface
is not enough to be compatible. You can possibly take TYA and create own
jit based on it, but be prepared for rewriting 80% of code.
