You are actually suggesting what Java does in a container environment lol. https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2022/04/19/java-17-whats-new-openjdks-contain

  Maybe now, but in the past you'd have to worry about things like running out of PermGen space. There were definitely more knobs than a typical container environment.

    And in the past it was interpreter only.

    PermGen was removed from Java in 2014, just a year after Docker was released. Please compare modern with modern rather than "the last time I used it".

      I did qualify my statement with "in the past." I was pointing out that Java did, in fact, have a lot of annoying knobs to turn. tbrock was advocating against having such knobs as they make deploying a language diffcult. The fact that Java removed one of the annoying knobs doesn't disprove the fact that having such knobs is annoying.
