  336 32,159 9.7 C#

  Experimental Nintendo Switch Emulator written in C#

  

It does not target the CIL; it has its own JIT.

• dynarmic

  6 967 8.8 C++

  Discontinued An ARM dynamic recompiler.

I did some work on Dynarmic, so there's my bias I guess. But I def believe Dynarmic would emit better context-aware assembly than a CIL->Native jitteror the JVM would emit. Dynarmic takes advantage of instruction sets like BMI2 and AVX{2,512} and uses a pretty darn concise intermediate representation to the original ARM assembly to emit efficient x86 while a C# JIT probably still only emits baseline x86-64 and struggles with efficient vectorization of things like Arm's NEON instructions. Can't even imagine a C# or Java VM trying to automatically emit optimal assembly for an FMADD including handling NaN propagation or detecting that FMINNM can be very quickly emulated with a single vrangep{s,d} x86 instruction.
