You'll see the memory difference if you compare Java with C++: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...

Except for one benchmark, where memory requirements are likely determined by the implemented algorithm, Java consumes in order of magnitude more memory across the board.

Not for reverse-complement.

Not for k-nucleotide.

Not for binary-trees.

Not for mandelbrot.

Not for regex-redux.

The others show the default JVM memory allocation mas o menos.
