Strongtalk limited dynamic features. But you’re not wrong in general. Even for Python there’s PyPy, with a JIT ~3x faster than CPython.

- pjmlp 1y agoStrongtalk was the transition step between Smalltalk JITs and what became Sun's Hotspot, but that wasn't the main point I was making. Also to note that even in that regard, Java happens to be more dynamic that people think, while the syntax is C++ like, the platform semantics are more akin to Smalltalk/Objective-C, hence why a JIT with such a background was a great addition.
