Julia already comes with an interpreter, try starting your session with `julia --compile=min`.

One part of the ongoing effort to reduce latencies is to allow package authors to specify optimization levels on a per-module basis. This is great for plotting packages for example, since they usually don't benefit much from overly aggressive optimizations, so spending less time optimizing codes generally leads to a snappier experience. It is now even possible to opt into a module-specific fully interpreted mode, which can make a lot of sense for typical scripting tasks.

That's great! Hoping to see julia get snappier at every release! (as it seems to be going)
