Forcing to JIT a lot of queries that are otherwise really fast
unfortunately has a significant time cost. Doing that on slow
architectures might be prohibitively slow. Kinda wonder if we shouldn't
just restrict JIT to a few architectures that we have a bit more regular
access to (x86, arm, maybe also ppc?). It's not like anybody would run
large analytics queries on mips.
