Yeah, and mono's AOT too. I wonder if this is really just ngen integration into VS and thus not really a big deal.

If I remember ngen is very architecture/platform specific - that is why it has to be done on the target machine. This sounds like it is done ahead of time with support for a variety of architectures.
