RE: Java performance on the i ? Good? bad? OK?

Yes of course,
But saying someting vague about Java's performance is FUD.
Because Java, actually the JVM, is very performant.
Saying vague bad things about Java's performance these days is FUD.
You can have lots of opinions about Java, one of them is that you simply dont like it.
Another one is that you are a very respected and knowledgable person in this community.Some people may take you're comments for real, without much scrutiny.
This calls for some responsibility from you.
In you're position i don't think you can saying something vague about performance, because you simply don't like it. Then say that you simply don't like it. You don't know exactly why, but you simply don't like it. Thats fine.

What did I say that was FUD?!

I don't like the Java programming language. The syntax is cumbersome.
The environment is too complicated. The add-ons like JavaEE, JSP, JSF,
Struts, exacerbate that complexity.

I just don't like Java. I never have. Nothing I'm saying here should
surprise anyone on Midrange.com, as I've been talking about how I
dislike Java for years.

But I don't see how that's FUD. It's an opinion. I'm entitled to my
opinion, aren't I?

Scott,
I really thought *you* didn't do FUD.
Java sucks on the i, maybe, but "in general"... please elaborate.Maybe you mean Java EE sucks... or WAS sucks, JSF... What does "in general" mean, with such a vast Java ecosystem.
If you mean that the JVM sucks, in general, performance wise, then you probably didn't really look for the last 10 years.
