for most of his points you'd have to do the same things in scala, right? How do you do arbitrary memory access in scala? How do you use space efficient strings in scala? etc, etc.

While the parent is generally wrong, it has been shown that Scala programs have the tendency to generate slightly (5-10%) less garbage. This is especially interesting on Dalvik.

OK, C++ then, or my own favourite, OCaml, for GC.
