And yet, people will refer to some other synthetic benchmark when arguing that the average Java project, which doesn't disable GC nor uses unsafe reads et al, is comparable.
Um, GraalVM (JIT) has both GC and memory safety. It's a drop-in replacement for HotSpot. It takes literally five seconds to change JAVA_HOME and you're done.
The benchmark literally uses Graal, something from Java, for Ruby and Python, but inexplicably doesn't use it for Java itself.
