20:26	bjonnh	we have an issue with double zipping. I have users that wanted to store zip files on the harvard dataverse, but they all get unzipped.
20:26	bjonnh	can we talk about that this week?
20:37	bjonnh	quarkus looks fun, Spring boot works pretty well with graalvm as well.
20:37	bjonnh	and memory usages are really close to quarkus
20:37	bjonnh	and boot time as well
20:45	bjonnh	https://www.slideshare.net/Pivotal/running-spring-boot-applications-as-graalvm-native-images/Pivotal/running-spring-boot-applications-as-graalvm-native-images
20:45	bjonnh	Slide 35 for example
20:46	bjonnh	spring boot especially 2.2 is pretty incredible regarding speed compared to older spring
20:47	bjonnh	and also look slide 37, because graalvm may not always be a panacea
20:47	bjonnh	and from what some spring devs told me, it can even make some apps slower because the JVM has some crazy optimizations that can kick in
20:48	bjonnh	see slide 40 for an example with latency where graalvm is clearly slower (it is a log scale!)
20:50	bjonnh	looking at all that, quarkus is using the benefits that graalvm brings to advertise their product as better than other stacks. If you compare the other java stacks all on graalvm, I'm not sure they are that different
20:51	bjonnh	unless you start going with lower-level stuff such as vert.x which are several orders of magnitude faster (but require way more developer time and maintenance)
