  That was certainly interesting, but it seems far from conclusive. It's an Android beginner saying that everything seemed to work alright. Is he/she in a good position to evaluate startup performance?

    > Is he/she in a good position to evaluate startup performance? Even my grandma would be in a good position to evaluate startup performance. Anyway, I was building an app back in the time of Android 2.0 to discover the platform and I had no problems, neither with startup time nor with apk size. That's why I get a bit concerned when people who a) build a “competing” language and b) only seem to know Scala from reading stuff on the internet, make misleading claims. If this had just happened once I wouldn't have said anything, but this seems to become a pattern.
