There are plenty of references to JIT for Java 1.1
in old SUN docs.

https://singztechmusings.wordpress.com/2011/07/03/java-what-is-jit-compiler-and-how-does-it-work/

claims:

<quote>
The JIT compiler was first made available as a performance update in the 
Java Development Kit (JDK) 1.1.6 software release
</quote>

so maybe the Wikipedia article is not 100% correct!?!?

My guess is that the article is correct about when HotSpot was
released but wrong about it being the first JIT compiler
and SUN had an earlier SUN JIT compiler.
