I would argue that Julia's strong point is generating specialized code, and facilitating generic programming. Throughput is definitely the driver, but I think several aspects of Julia's design could benefit real-time programming as well.

Currently, there are many blockers to using Julia in real-time application, such as dynamic memory allocation and lack of thread safety. But I find it promising that a subset of Julia could be used for real-time programming.
