Clearly PyPy has to produce executable code if it wants to jump into it. The CPU wouldn't understand if it were asked to jump into something that isn't executable code.

It produces executable code ad hoc based on the dynamic environment. Not an executable. That's not the same thing.

I don't see how the frequency or laziness of the process makes a meaningful difference. It takes an interpreter, evaluates it with partial information (like, "type of x is integer"), and delays the rest till the execution is possible with the remaining information (like, "x is 7").
