They claim it is a throwback to the old Basica days. To what extent is this true? The latest claims coming from advanced JIT compilers is that Java is about equal and sometimes faster than C++. First they get rid of the interpreter overhead by using JIT, then they use Java's lack of pointers to do better memory management (Since nowadays a lot of the computation time is spent swapping memory in and out of the level 2 cache, optimal memory management can put Java over the top).
