You don't need to run Java services.

Running gitbucket is simply "Java -jar gitbucket.jar"

JVM performance is pretty much world-class (and has been for many years). Golang and JVM compete neck to neck at top of the performance charts. Remember that startup performance is not what Java optimised for - it's long running processes like any web server or api.

And I'm far more excited by Graal than any programming language breakthrough over the past few years ( https://youtu.be/_7yIUkP5LiQ)




Ok, let me rephrase that, if you like to run the JVM do it :)
