I rarely use lifetimes and I don't deeply copy everything. This tool is probably the fastest in its class - does this code look like having a lot of lifetimes, cryptic syntax or deep copying? - https://github.com/pkolaczk/latte/blob/main/src/main.rs - https://github.com/pkolaczk/latte/blob/main/src/exec.rs There was one fundamental "aha" moment for me when it clicked: move semantics. Once I learned it, suddenly 99% of stuff became simple (including making async quite nice really, contrary to popular HN beliefs).

> Does https://github.com/pkolaczk/latte count? This is just Rust code. Where is the equivalent Java code? Like the 50x-100x memory consumption is highly suspicious. If Java uses 50x the memory consumption compare to C++, how come I can allocate a long[SINT_MAX-10] on a system machine with 32 Gb of RAM? Shouldn't the process require of order 0.8 Tb of RAM if this statement is correct? Or can C++ allocate a 2 bn array of longs in 40 Mb of RAM? If so let me know, I would be very interested in using this novel compression technology. > Or the Optional cost described on my blog here: https://pkolaczk.github.io/overhead-of-optional/? Why aren't you using OptionalLong[1]? You shouldn't use Optional<Long>, that's never a good choice. At any rate, nobody should be claiming Java optionals are are free, they're a high level abstraction and absolute

ly do not belong in hot codepaths. In general it's fairly easy to construct benchmarks that favor any particular language, which is why you constantly see these blog posts about how high level interpreted languages (JS, PHP, Haskell) are faster than C++. You can easily construct "comparisons" that make JVM languages look superior to C++ as well, just carelessly allocate throwaway objects of different sizes and lifetimes (like you can in Java), oh no, why is C++ slowing down? Surely there's no heap fragmentation! That's a bad faith benchmark though. It doesn't really demonstrate anything other than that C++ following Java idioms isn't very good. > And what do I do with that knowledge if it turns out the optimization didn't happen? The way the JIT works is by aggressively overassuming, and then recompiling with more generalized interpretations of the code when assumptions turn out to be false. But the wider problems of compilers occasionally generating suboptimal instructions isn't something that is Java specific. [1] https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/12/docs/api/java.base...
