Hello whiskers, after thanking everyone for the honor of making me a committer, I do the proposal I worked those days: "fixing" the Java runtime.
I benchmarked the java runtime, here: https://sciabarracom.github.io/incubator-openwhisk-runtime-actionloop/ As you can see the openwhisk/javaaction is pretty slow. Not sure why... So I did a proof of concept to see how much I can improve. Actually, a lot, as you can see the actionloop/java8, bringing the runtime on par with the others using action loop. The actionloop/java8 is only a PoC, it runs the hello.java but I did not run the tests. If the proposal is accepted I will work to make sue it passes all the tests of the current java runtime. Then I have in mind a lot of extensions, supporting java 11, providing the ability to compile sources, download dependencies, compile also scala and kotlin... But let do things in order. It the community ok that I contribute an actionloop based java runtime? PS I will be a bit slow working on it since those days I am finishing also the book on OpenWhisk... -- Michele Sciabarra [email protected]
