Interesting, thanks for the links. Honestly, I tend to avoid writing Java in favor of native languages at this point largely because of latency requirements.

Go on Android definitely seems to be in its infancy.
- pjmlp 11y agoJust as extra info in case you aren't aware, Java is also compiled directly native code on Android as of 5.0. https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/index.html#AOT_compilation https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/index.html#AO... And apparently Oracle is finally joining the third party JVMs by adding AOT support to the reference JDK, but it might only come after Java 10. This together with the upcoming value types and JNI replacement, might eventually close the gap with the alternatives. Not being a Java zealot, as a polyglot developer I use a bit of everything, just spreading the word.
