This is a bit over my head and I'm out of the JVM world now but I found it all very interesting and well written. One small thing I'd suggest is to change how footnotes are done. I was very confused when I hit the first footnote "1" but there was no title text and it wasn't a link so I just scrolled to the bottom of the article and saw "1. Employing this technique seems to work on Windows and Linux..." and I was very confused as that had nothing to do with "three million devices.". The "1: n = 3,000,000; ..." in the next paragraph didn't register when reading through. I thought it might be a "pull quote"-type thing that would be explained below. There are about a million ways to accomplish footnotes so I won't try and say which is best but some color difference (both footnote number and then the text for the footnote) might be helpful in making it more obvious and seems like an easy change. Again, great article and I really don't meant to nitpick, the footnotes just confused me a little.
