This seems to be true. But, it should be added that the implementation is

likely that it could be made to work better. Or, does anyone have a better
idea for a JIT?


There's been a talk on the bug tracker of using the experimental gcc-jit:

https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?8395

Since Octave mostly uses gcc to compile this would seem like an interesting direction to go. The author of gcc-jit also seems keen to disseminate his work so might help Octave develop this.
