1. Run time compiled euphoria

Would it be better/faster if euphoria was run time compiled like java
is, with JIT(just in time) compiling? And what would be necessary to
make it fast, and platform independent.

I have no interest in doing that.
JIT means compiling right down to machine code just
before executing the program. That means a longer 
start-up delay. The execution speed would be no better than
the Translator provides now. It would mean developing a lot of extra
code, with inevitable bugs, and that work would not be easily 
portable to another CPU.

I was hoping it would give the speed of the translator with the
startup time of the interpreter.

Something is wrong with Topica.  I've been reading listfilter all day 
but this is the last message in my email box.
