I don't think that address anything. As long as you CAN
dynamically load override, then you can't optimize AOT, and if
you can't then, it isn't java, but some kind of java like
dialect that is amputed of some of its capabilities.
If the most of your classes are known before run and are loaded
by known to AOT compiler classloader (99.99% of your classes
usually), you can optimize them with AOT. For other classes (that
appear at runtime only or loaded by unknown classloader) JVM with
AOT may have JIT or interpreter. Excelsior JET runtime has JIT,
GCJ has interpreter for this purpose.
