Jank should be able to produce significantly smaller binaries than Graal native images at the very least, but the potential for performance gains looks to be rather large, e.g. per "jank has been consistently beating Clojure in benchmarks" [0]
That's a big part of why Jank is interesting to me, because it can properly embrace the idea of runtime JIT using LLVM. The JVM may still have an edge with profile-guided optimization for the foreseeable future, but perhaps Jank can help close that gap and support even more advanced possibilities for data-intensive workloads, e.g. along the lines of https://www.lingo-db.com/
