Why?
(A super slimmed down flavour of) Java runs on fucking simcards.
Because usually they use the super fat flavor of Java. Jabba Fatt tier of lardiness Java.
I’m using the fattest of java (Kotlin) on the fattest of frameworks (Spring boot) and it is still decently fast on a 5 year old raspberry pi. I can hit precise 50 μs timings with it.
Imagine doing it in fat python (as opposed to micropython) like all the hip kids.
