I have also reached a point of wondering whether I care about portability. I like the JVM ecosystem but I generally do not give a damn that the JVM abstracts the underlying OS to me since I have to go install it on the target somehow anyway.
If, tomorrow, I could generate native binaries and still leverage the excellent libraries that I can today, I wouldn't be missing anything at all.
- panzerboy 6y agoI guess that's the point of Graal VM, right?
- blandflakes 6y agoTheoretically. It's been reported to have lower total performance than the JVM, and a lot of libraries don't work with it yet. In any case, if GraalVM accomplishes its mission without the amount of handholding it requires today, sure.
