No VM is one of the reason people use Go, along with easy concurrency backed directly in the language and not as a third party framework.
IF you find the JVM so awesome ,keep using it. I personally think the memory cost isnt worth it ,and when I say cost, I mean the actual cost in $$$. Hardware might be cheap, the cloud isn't.
- pjmlp 12y agoWell...I can compile Java code to native code just as well, which many in HN seem to forget. Just because the option isn't part of OpenJDK, doesn't mean other commercial JVMs don't offer it on their toolchain.
- mike_hearn 12y agoYeah but this document is talking about making GC faster and more predictable by increasing memory usage (same tradeoff as the JVM makes).
