        I used to feel the same way, but I just saw a technical demo of a  
service used here that handles millions of requests a day with amazing  
latency numbers that hardly nudges the CPU. It's written entirely in  
Java, and does lots of non-trivial stuff in each request.

        Java has not been sitting still all these years. Well-written Java  
code can be plenty fast.
