I see that limitation. But currently we have a high overhead JIT. The problem is not so much program run time, but load time.

Damn. Okay, what sort of metadata would be appropriate to aid in this? If it means having the assembler, IMCC, or some external utility write a chunk that identifies the basic blocks and edges, then I'm all for it.
