That’s only half true. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Julia moves more in the direction of other JIT languages, and run on very low optimization levels for non-performance sensitive code. Getting this right would be hard, but it very well might be easier than getting fast compile times. My guess is in a year or two, Julia will probably be much better at both interpreting code, and having statically compiled code. Packages will largely be precompiled, and non-critical code will be interpreted. This is just wild speculation by a mostly outside observer though, so take it with a heavy grain of salt.
