Java is great when you need speed approaching Rust/C++ but don't actually need to be the fastest.

It's way easier than C++ and will get you 80 percent of the way there in terms of performance

This is oversimplifying probably. The JVM can make your non-optimized code faster than your non-optimized c++ code.
