I remember when the JVM was tailored to the Java language and people declared it too hard to have other languages compile to it.

It's been many years of effort and dynamic languages on the JVM still do not compete with native dynamic language VMs. But yes, for languages like Scala etc., they run quite well on the JVM, well enough for sure.
