I used GNU lightning library once for such optimisation. I think it was ICFPC 2006 task. I had to write an interpreter for virtual machine. Naive approach worked but was slow, so I decided to speed it up a bit using JIT. It wasn't a 100% JIT, I think I just implemented it for loops but it was enough to tremendously speed it up.
