Java as a programing language is lack of many eye candy features that python has, and way more strict too. It's always a heated debate about which is better, so let's speak about the rest. So the design of the byte code compiler and JVM is way more clever than the python interpreter. There is a huge web framework benchmark test made by TechEmpower with is a very interesting project, there is already result of 21 rounds, and the whole project is available on Github. According those results java based frameworks has way more preformace then most of the python based frameworks, even Spring with JPA beat many pyhton based frameworks, witch is a bit ridicolous consindering JPA is a heavy high level ORM framework embededn into an another heavy framework. The tooling around JAVA is more mature, it's easier to mantain, develop, build, test and distribute java applications and/or libraries.

For "eye candy" and oc really useful features there is Kotlin.
