Sure, Optional is not the most optimal thing to use/do, though depending on how many entities you were operating with, that itself may still be negligible.

- pylua 2y agoThat’s the pain point - well written java code may not be the most performant depending on the situation. It wasn’t just optional but other areas as well.
- gf000 2y agoThat's not my experience, though game development is certainly a niche and Java may not be the top choice for that. You might sometimes have to reach for SoA-like structures and reference them via indices, at least for the core ECS, but for the rest you can easily use bog-standard Java -- not everything has to be "ultra-fast, specially written java", just certain hot loops.
- pylua 2y agoRight. I didn’t started digging into it until I realized the application was clearly sluggish in certain scenarios. As I am doing this for fun I am going to see what kind of speed up I get in rust for this.
