This is really just a general followup.

Certainly, when Java first hit the scene, building applications with it 
was problematic for two reasons: one, the runtime engine was very slow, 
and two, hardware wasn't really ready for it.

Now, both of these problems are gone and Java applications generally run 
very fast now.
