They still need some more time with GraalVM. Currently you need Microsoft's C++ Compiler in order to use GraalVM on Windows. They will need time to polish these things... But GraalVM performance is already on par with HotSpot - with better startup times!

> Currently you need Microsoft's C++ Compiler in order to use GraalVM on Windows No need for xcode on os x or gcc on Linux, or clang on bsds?

  You need xcode on OS/X and gcc on Linux. See here: https://www.graalvm.org/reference-manual/native-image/#prerequisites https://www.graalvm.org/reference-manual/native-image/#prere...

    Maybe I misunderstood your post then - why is needing the platform c++ compiler an issue on windows, but not mac/linux?

      It is an issue for all platforms - I just mentioned Windows, because I work on Windows. And the issue is: Why do I need a C++ compiler if I would like to develop in Java?
