    Julia does have a minimal compilation path with an interpreter. You can even configure this on a per-module basis, which I believe some of the plotting packages do to reduce latency. There is even a JIT-style dynamic compiler which works similarly to the VMs you listed: https://github.com/tisztamo/Catwalk.jl/.

    IMO, the bigger issue is one of predictability and control. Some users may not care about latency at all, whereas others have it as a primary concern. JS and related runtimes don't give you much control over when optimization and are thus black boxes, whereas Julia has known semantics around it. I think fine-grained tools to externally control optimization behaviour for certain modules (in addition to the current global CLI options and per-package opt-ins) would go a long way towards addressing this.
