>performance, portability, maturity and stability
sounds like C# and Java with only performance being questionable, but Java's used in HFT, so it definitely can compete.
- qppo 6y agoGC is usually out the window if you're debating using C++
- whimsicalism 6y ago> Java's used in HFT, so it definitely can compete. This is a bad argument and if you're using Java, you're not competing in the very speed-critical parts of HFT. Nor is Java common among HFT shops at all. well-written C++ is much faster than Java.
- tester756 6y agoI know people who sit in HK and have been doing HFT/Quant stuff for years and they say something completely different - that Java's popular among biggest trading/stock systems. So saying that > Nor is Java common among HFT shops at all. Sounds weird, especially when it appears among job postings.
