Indeed, most of the problems we have faced so far are related to software that uses native libraries somehow. But most of the times the "main" software is not to blame but one of its dependencies. For example some of the file format (Protobuf, Thrift, Parquet, etc) and file compression libraries (e.g. Brotli) caused problems. The only big problem with pure Java (well, Scala in this case) I am aware of was in Scala Cats library: - https://github.com/typelevel/cats-effect/releases/tag/v3.0.0-M4 - code with explanation from OpenJDK expert: https://gist.github.com/RaasAhsan/8e3554a41e07068536425ca0de46c9e8 This concurrency related code is always tricky and I expect that other projects may face it too when someone tries to deploy on ARM64. We'll see!
