alt Hacker NewsWhat are the most common ways to improve warmup times, actually? Looked a bunch into this, primarily native image, aot and crac, all of them super messy to get to work with a normal JVM webapp. I understand the warmup concept is inherent in JIT compilation, but how are big companies like Netflix handling this to quickly scale microservices horizontally etc?
Native images shouldn't be too messy anymore, Oracle put a lot of effort into DX improvements and all major web frameworks are now aware it's an important and growing use case.
Struggling to build native images should be a sign you're reliant on libraries that are dangerously outdated and abandoned.
