Dolphin Android Port ?

RE: Dolphin Android Port ?
JIT can only get more complex in future. We are emulating newer consoles/devices each time. Newer consoles have fancy new chips with complicated instruction sets. All these vector instructions that need replicated and so on.
It may get a bit easier if there is already opensource code for every possible mapping (PPC->ARM, MIPS->ARM, etc.) but nothing to do with the hardware improving.

We'll always want to use JIT, even if interpreter is fast enough, simply because it saves battery life (which is always a precious thing).
