Overall Satisfaction with GraalVM

We're using GraalVM for Minecraft servers. We use it on every server we have. Since we started using GraalVM we recognized better performance incorporation with a modified Minecraft server jar. Also we're having a smaller RAM and CPU usage. Most of us are also using it on our private windows machines, and java processes are faster there too.
  • Better performance
  • Smaller CPU and RAM usage
  • Offering it for free
  • At the moment we're happy with the features it has.
  • We're not released yet so I can's say much about this yet.
Considered OpenJDK and OracleJDK. Our main point is still that we need a VM which starts the servers very quickly and GraalVM tops them all.
