It's not that uncommon of move, to choose jumping through hoops with Java over writing C. Might become less common now Rust is teaching the level it is.

An interesting part of HFT is you normally do everything on a single thread. Your unit of parallelism would be a different JVM and you want to avoid context switching at all costs, going as far as to pin specific OS threads, making sure you

Were talking enterprise java, it's a behamouth and changing it takes forever. I think in today's ecosystem of microservices and serverless etc, AOT will be taken pretty seriously.

I don't think there is too much software a government agency will buy that I wouldn't like to see pen tested. By it's nature government is often dealing with sensitive data. I'm not sure why having standards that should

While there is an element of truth to that we have sacrificed performance for ease of development, especially in cross platform use cases. (Often a reasonable trade off, imho)

Honestly vscode is quite snappy and I often seem to run into issues with Emacs performance. For a long time printing a largeish string to a buffer would crash Emacs, and it still lags vscode in opening large files in my experience.

To each their own, I don't want to be the victim of identify theft because sales pushed engineering into releasing shit code with a simple buffer overflow that noone ever tested for.
