Full agreement with everything you said. Just one detail to add on serverless (and potentially in a scheduled environment like k8s), startup time can be an order of magnitude or more faster in a native build. For instance, I have some quarkus applications that can take 10 seconds to ready running via the jre that take 10ms or less to start as a graalvm built binary.

I wish JVM could at least recover the memory after some time and drop at runtime what quarkus / AOT drops at build time.

It can and already does. It mostly depends on the GC. Or do you mean non-heap memory that the runtime uses?
