> JavaScript is bad for graphically intense application Are they? It’s not like C++ is tossing around pixels itself, it commands the GPU to do so. Sure, there is a point where the speed at which the CPU side of data being supplied will be the bottleneck, but it is so far above typical desktop applications that it is incorrect to call managed languages unfit for graphically intensive applications (as shown by all those indie games). Also, there are many different kinds of GCs, and you can limit the max pause time to very low values for a slightly lower throughput (note: this same tradeoff will happen without a GC also, these two are very often opposite ends of the same spectrum) to the point that unless you are using special real-time kernel with all the necessary process configs, your OS’s scheduler will introduce bigger pauses.
