Not sure.
Well, Java Generics are very limited in comparison with C++ / Object
Pascal generics (Java generics accepts only Objects never primitives),
so that's make them much simpler to use/understand of course.
Maybe Java is right and that's all we'll ever need and the performance
improvement of templates
There is no performance improvement, rather the contrary.
The generic list works slower than the native list.
