Thanks for the info. It makes sense in that case. Though the JVM can be very performant when written properly, and especially now with ZGC, Valhalla, Panama, etc.
ah yeah no doubt. I've read the recent gc code in the jvm tree. it's beautiful. We just had a ton years of experience with c++ and it was a good fit for seastar.io - this all came from me messing around with https://github.com/smfrpc/smf and seeing what one could do w/ DMA (no kernel page cache)
