Memory is the dominant cost factor when you rent a server, but my main issue with Java's memory usage is that a single (Oracle) VM instance becomes incresingly unusable above 4GB of RAM due to garbage collector pauses. If you can distribute your work over many VMs that's fine, but if the application needs a lot of data in memory then Java just isn't a viable solution. At least not the Oracle VM and Azul is too expensive.
