JIT vs non-JIT - whats the difference?

on the official site, it says the non-jit runs at 1/500 of the host speed,
whereas the JIT runs at 1/40! this is about 50MHz for me...
people have been saying it only runs at 10MHz???

can someone explain this?

my specs:
P4 2.8 w/HT
512 DDR

I don't think Biallas means 1/40 quite that way. For example, in the IRC channel, he phrased it this way. Note the last part:

"I hope to get 1/10 of host speed. That meens I want to execute 1 client instruction by the avarage of 10 host instructions. That meens NOT 1/10 of MHZ."
