OpenJ9 has had some of this type of functionality for a while now. Glad to see the difference between interpreted and compiled languages continue to get fuzzier.
Even longer than that, OpenJ9 AOT capabilities, and JIT cache, go back to the Websphere Real-Time JVM, whose branding had nothing to do with J2EE application server.
Most documentation is gone from the Internet, I was able to dig one of the old manuals,
These kind of features have been available in commercial JVMs like those for a while now, what the community is finally getting are free beer versions of such capabilities.
