Denys Shabalin explains how Scala Native achieves fast startup and low latency by compiling Scala directly to machine code.

This video was recorded at Scala Days Copenhagen 2017 Follow us on Twitter @ScalaDays or visit our website for more information scaladays.org Abstract: JVM is a blessing. JVM is a curse. Startup time and predictable performance are extremely hard to achieve on the JVM due to the complexity of the underlying VM. This makes Scala unsuitable for writing applications that are sensitive to these requirements. In this talk, we're going to show how Scala Native enables lightweight system programming without breaking a sweat.
