Compiled JIT can be pretty similar to AOT, if the application runs for any real period of time. Generally, a JIT will try to compile any given block of code only once; so it winds up working towards the same state as something AOT.

That being said, there is a caveat that the code _can_ change for something compiled JIT, and there are inefficiencies related to that.
