Except garbage collector, what else makes Java a non real time programming language
Except the garbage collector, what are some other features in Java that make it unsuitable for real time programming? On the net, whenever Java vs C++ is discussed with regards to real time programming, it is always the garbage collector that is mentioned. Is there anything else?

Are C or C++ The Only Viable Languages for a GC
Background I have just finished writing a compiler for a functional language compiling to the JVM as a learning project. However, since I’m just doing this to learn, I thought it might be interesting to write a native backend and a RTS for it. As I’ve been planning out what this new backend will look […]

Demonstration of garbage collection being faster than manual memory management
I’ve read in many places (heck, I’ve even written so myself) that garbage collection could (theoretically) be faster than manual memory management.

Since Garbage Collection is non-deterministic, why isn’t it used for secure random number generation?
I get that /dev/random is a good source of entropy, and is what is usually used– It’s just as I’m reading up on GC, at least in Java, it seems accepted that the garbage collection daemon executes non-deterministically. If this it true, why don’t we use the timing of the garbage collection as a source of entropy instead of the variable /dev/random?
