As per that list Java is still faster for most of the benchmarks. Massive effort has gone into the JVM too, for the last 20+ years.

If you're not restarting the server on every request (like the "serverless" nonsense does), a second more or less is not that important. I'd like to see sustained throughput comparison between those two.
