Yes exactly! This is huge. Hessian optimization is really easy with JAX, haven't tried it in Julia though

Here's Hessian-Free Newton-Krylov on neural ODEs with Julia: https://diffeqflux.sciml.ai/dev/examples/second_order_adjoin... . It's just standard tutorial stuff at this point.

And very fast given that you compile the procedure! I am considering writing an article on this and posting it here because I have seen enormous improvements over non jitted code, and that excluded jax.vmap.

There's a comparison of JAX with PyTorch for Hessian calculation here!

Would definitely be interested in an article like that if you decide to write it
