> Android apps are not incredibly slow compared to native apps I still have to wait seconds for simple apps to startup. Apps of the complexity that would have opened instantly on a desktop of 20 years ago. Part of that is the speed of java and part is the extra memory it uses. >Also, Android has and will be running on the JVM, because they're transitioning to OpenJDK. Android is switching to the OpenJDK class libraries, not the VM, they've already built their own VM twice to avoid it. I think your confusing the VM and the libraries everywhere else too.
