The performance metrics for some JVM-based technologies are really impressive but I continue to see performance problems with Java (the language) based software. In my field, very high speed network data processing work is done with C/C++ out of necessity.

Outside of those enterprise-centric areas, it's not a great fit for much else (fast data processing, embedded, games, etc.) I say this as someone who has worked with server-side Java since 1999.
