Description
Summary:GraalVM is a new Java Development Kit developed by Oracle that promises improved performance when running Java programs. In this paper we compare the performance of both the community edition and the enterprise edition of GraalVM to OpenJDK and OracleJDK, using both Java 8 and Java 11. We use the DaCapo benchmark suite to test these JDKs. The results are analysed using statistically rigorous methodology. We find that the performance of the different JDKs vary significantly depending on the benchmark, making it difficult to draw any definitive conclusions.In the end we can see that GraalVM Enterprise Edition using Java 8 will outperform the other JDKs tested in the majority of cases.
