    I can’t think to any program made in java that isn’t a memory hog.

    Look at the performance of Minecraft java vs native

    Or vuze that uses 20x the memory of qbittorrent for doing the same stuff but with less features

    So either java devs don’t know how to optimize code, or the language itself has some problems

      Of course there comes the Minecraft comparison. Which also conveniently ignores the fact that Minecraft can run incredibly fast using certain performance mods. It’s not Java, it’s just shitty programming / code that hogs its performance.
