I'm genuinely curious about the effect, but I simply don't have patience for the AI writing. Can anyone give an actual non-garbage explanation with some respect for the reader?
I'm genuinely curious: I read through the article and the narrative felt deliberate and didn't trigger my AI-radar. What made you think it was AI written?
1. Upgrade your JDK for the best performance (as the article says, the slowdown is gone in JDK 26).
2. Don't try to help the GC by pooling objects. Mutating old objects can be expensive, while allocating new ones is cheap (at least for objects that don't do some exceptionally expensive initialisation).

There are two practical lessons here:
1. Upgrade your JDK for the best performance (as the article says, the slowdown is gone in JDK 26).
2. Don't try to help the GC by pooling objects. Mutating old objects can be expensive, while allocating new ones is cheap (at least for objects that don't do some exceptionally expensive initialisation).
