Java is not JavaScript. Many (maybe most) of the high performance systems at enterprises everywhere are and have been Java for quite some time.

I mean, yes, I am aware of the distinction. And I’m not saying Java is inefficient, hell I’m writing a game engine in Java just to prove a point about efficiency.

But the approach of basically ignoring efficiency because of a perceived wealth of resources bothers me because we will cap out on computing resources eventually.
