This is basically saying Java has an advantage because it is compiled specifically for the hardware that it runs on. I see variations on the claim a lot, but to be honest, it's put up or shut up time. Is there any real world evidence that statically compiled code running on a modern processor can be significantly outperformed by code compiled per machine? I've not seen any. - [[User:Richfife|Richfife]] ([[User talk:Richfife|talk]]) 21:58, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
== "Speed" ? ==
While performance of running programs is covered, something everyone knows but never discussed is how slow java server apps (jvms) are to start (and stop). I don't think it's a small matter, either, as a simple restart is no longer trivial enough to not have to build tooling around, since restarts can take over a minute (and cause outages). I feel it should be mentioned.
