    There are tons of articles on the web. I just took the first I found on DuckDuckGo.

    I’m glad to hear that you didn’t find any issue when switching from Oracle JDK, and I won’t debate your good faith nor the exactitude of your particular experience.

    My point was to answer the Swift shitposting nonsense in the previous post.

      Here’s an article with real data. It sure looks like OpenJDK is at least on par with Oracle. I think Oracle was much better 4-5 years ago and that’s why you get a lot of results. https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1597213/FULLTEXT01.pdf

      All I see is shitposting on Java. I haven’t seen one negative word about Swift. Can we agree that OpenJDK is both open source and performant? That’s the only point I’m trying to make.

        Can we agree that OpenJDK is (…) open source (…)?

        Yes.

        Can we agree that OpenJDK is both open source and performant?

        I can’t agree with something I don’t know enough about, and about what I have read opposite statements and experiences.

        I have no doubt that in some context, OpenJDK could perform as well as OracleJDK. Some APIs and methods can have been well written from the start. What I do know about software engineering though is that Alpha and Beta stages exist for some reasons.

        I haven’t seen one negative word about Swift.

        Seek for the root of the thread.
