It didn’t take too long, there was AOT compilers available two decades ago as well.
There was just not much interest in it, because performance gets worth, and startup time is seldom interesting. (Pretty much only command line tools would require faster startup, and recent serverless)
And memory usage is a tradeoff. Though most of the time java could run with almost half of the currently used memory, it is unnecessary work to GC if memory is available.
