I wonder if you could use clang/llvm to do a super-JIT by having it recompile its IR as the program runs, taking advantage of profiling to optimize the hot paths.


Profile guided optimizations are already a thing and don't need JITting your program.


Profile guided optimization is a static operation that's done after profiling the running app - unless the state of the art has changed in the last few years.
