Welcome!

This site is home to the Jewel Virtual Machine Project.
The Jewel VM is a clean-room innovative alternate implementation of the Java Virtual Machine that incorporates a JIT cache in secondary memory, thus improving JIT performance. The JIT cache dilutes JIT compilation time enabling the use of expensive advanced optimizations. Also, the JIT cache may be distributed so that multiple JVM clients can share JIT code and benefit from JIT compilation on a faster server machine.
Jewel is an acronym for Java Environment With Enhanced Linkage.
Enjoy!
