Just returned from the @graalvm summit, one of my favorite tech events for the last years: cozy, well organized and deeply technical. I presented "Shenandoah for Substrate VM" which will hopefully land in one of the next feature releases together with G1 GC. Choice is freedom!

Using @GraalVM native image to AOT compile Java base and javac is still giving another 3-4x better numbers. And this without the need for a training run. github.com/thomaswue/crema-s…

GraalWasm just got faster! 🔥 The new threaded interpreter delivers significantly better interpreter performance. In interpreter benchmarks, total execution time is reduced by 5-40%! Details: github.com/oracle/graal/pull…

WasmGC is coming to GraalWasm, unlocking the power of JVM garbage collectors for #WebAssembly! This will also get GraalWasm a lot closer to implementing the full Wasm 3.0 spec. Join @shaunmsmith and me at @Jfokus next month to learn more: jfokus.se/talks.html?showid=…

Great to see @graalvm Native Image in action!
Vsevolod@qwwdfsad14 Nov 2025
Native Image is an *amazing* technology! Having a 150mb+ JAR full of weird compiler stuff (from jrtfs to Swing!) in kotlinc quite easily built with Native Image, and immediately yielding this kind of improvement is outstanding. Looking forward to what's next 👀

It's still amazing to me that I can turn a Scala JVM application into a 20M container image that starts instantly. Thanks @graalvm! The same project, naively packaged, results in a 665M container and takes a few seconds to start.

Russia illegally and unjustifiably invaded Ukraine. For three years now, Ukrainians have fought with courage and resilience. Their fight for democracy, freedom, and sovereignty is a fight that matters to us all. Canada will continue to stand with Ukraine and Ukrainians in achieving a just and lasting peace.
