Java Performance: The JVM is not that heavy - Open Sourcery

The JVM is not that heavy - Open Sourcery: "Be very careful before judging the JVM as a target. Judge Java as a language by all means, but keep it separate from the virtual machine.

I used to believe the same things you did. I used to think of the JVM as this behemoth. Now I'm thankful to be able to throw my parentheses at it and have the work of thousands of giants support it.

By no means take this post as a sign of "the end of Node" or "the end of Ruby". Let it bring a fresh perspective. If you can't switch to the JVM, at least think about what you could do to help eliminate the bloat from your own world.
