An airhacks.fm conversation with Gerrit Grunwald (@hansolo_) about:

Gerrit appeared previously at "#268 How Han Solo wrote SteelSeries", Java desktop applications are still widely used in large companies and industries for internal tools, as they are easy to build and deploy. Swing and JavaFX are faster and more native than their reputation suggests. On the server side, Java is very efficient for cloud workloads compared to other languages. The Zulu OpenJDK production-ready build of OpenJDK offers added features like security scanning. Azul Zing, Azul Vulnerability Detection, "#126 JavaFX Everywhere ...also in App Stores" with Johan Vos, now called Azul Platform Prime, includes an enhanced Falcon JIT compiler that can speed up performance significantly on some workloads. Prime also supports fast startups via checkpoints with CraC, and faster warmup with ReadyNow pre-compiled optimizations, IBM InstantOn is similar to CraC, Azul Platform Prime was primarily called Zing, Azul Code Inventory helps with code migrations
