The work from Amazon to bring with Shenandoah a low-pause GC to @graalvm is really great and the early evaluations are quite promising. Thank you @volker_simonis and team!

Just returned from the @graalvm summit, one of my favorite tech events for the last years: cozy, well organized and deeply technical. I presented "Shenandoah for Substrate VM" which will hopefully land in one of the next feature releases together with G1 GC.

Choice is freedom!

Looks like TypeScript will get their own version of native image. @GraalVM provides this capability for Kotlin and Java to compete with always AOT compiled languages such as Rust or Go already for some time!

Merging Bun AOT next week, then testing on Claude Code

Expecting 2-3x less memory + CPU & a slightly smaller binary

This is the future of server-side JavaScript

Instead of you rewriting in Rust, we rewrote JavaScript's compiler to emit native code ahead of time

The new JetBrains IDE Intelligence is using a great architecture 🏆🚀: „Both the daemon and CLI are developed in Java and distributed as a 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗮𝗹𝗩𝗠 executable, so there is no startup or runtime overhead from the JVM.“

We've been working a lot(!) on our Java LSP offering and Netflix are among the first to publish the benefits that they saw using it in their agentic flows. Check it out!

Indeed amazing that the @jetbrains runtime does support also for modern Java versions the enhanced class redefinition capabilities based on the work I did during my PhD on DCEVM ssw.jku.at/dcevm/! When developing applications with complex state, this can be a game changer in terms of development velocity.

Your periodic reminder <github.com/JetBrains/JetB…> exists, making the JVM likely the best combination of runtime performance & hot code-reloading available today.

Looking forward to connecting! Specifically the BOF is a great setting for your most advanced questions and feedback about anything related to @GraalVM!
