Comment on Scala 2.9 vs 2.10 Performanceparent

This comparison makes no sense, the two JVM's were designed with fundamentally different goals.

At any rate, if you really wanted to compare, you would have to run the benchmarks on the same platform, i.e. Dalvik on the desktop or HotSpot on Android.

Which makes no sense either.

What they are designed for and what they are quite commonly used for are different things. Both are used for running my application code. Serious performance problems on one makes that worse, regardless of whether it is worse-as-designed or not.
