The NDK is a wrapper above a slew of C/C++ lib and those are not garbage collected.
It make me think of PHP. The language is actually really slow but because most of it's standard library are wrappers around actual C library, a lot of people perceive it as a really fast language.
But compared to raw C/C++/Rust, it is still slow.
