The problem is that there are no native compiled version for
many large application which is based on Java. Those applications
(ERP, telecom, etc) are typically outside of the domain knowledge
of the majority of the audiences of PIClist (electronics engineering
professionals or hobbyists). After all, Oracle, IBM, SAP all rely
on Java and they are the leaders in the business software world.

I am not saying that I know Java and it is arguable those big
applications run well or not. I am not a Java fan myself based
on my limited exposure to Java based application (eg Lotus Notes).
However, I am saying we are probably not knowledgeable enough to
judge Java based applications.
