>But it's very narrow in what it can achieve desktop-comparable speeds on when it comes to heavy workloads Very generally, Java is one of those things. CPU performance is really, really good for non-rosetta workloads. I agree though that despite Apple's wild claims the general GPU performance isn't that good - not that it's bad for very quiet laptop.

> Very generally, Java is one of those things. CPU performance is really, really good for non-rosetta workloads. Single-threaded (or "lightly threaded") absolutely. But if we're saying "desktop-comparable" and "heavy workloads" I'm gonna assume a multi-core workload and go throw things like the 5950X or 12900K into the ring at a minimum, and the 5995WX at the extreme. M1 ultra starts at $4k after all, it's absolutely fair to include Xeon-W & Threadripper Pros against that. M1's big cores punch above their weight, but they still can't make up that much of a core count deficit.
