It's an interesting idea, but it looks like a lot of added complexity for little benefit.

If the code injection / code generation runs too often, this screws up with the L1 code cache which may decrease performance instead of improving it. Reminds me of John Carmack's (game engine programmer) statements about Wolfenstein 3D's dynamic code generation for rendering. It was great on 386 CPUs if I recall correctly, but on 486 and above (or was it Pentium?) it actually decreased performance due to thrashing the cache.
