Hi,

I had a look on the squirrelfish source code and I saw that there is no mixed mode. It means we use JIT or interpreter but we can't switch to interpreter if the JIT fails.

Is it OK ? or I'm wrong ?

In theory, it should be possible for JavaScriptCore to support mixed- mode execution, because the bytecode interpreter and JIT use the same register file. However, there are currently a number of more minor incompatibilities between the bytecode interpreter and the JIT that make it more complicated than simply flipping a switch and having it work.
