Haha, I feel like there is a language bubble, everyone is using their interpreted/bytecode language, but people never realize how performance can be and is still always an issue. Even with the fastest computer, or cloud, or cluster, computer resources are always finite, and it's easier to reach that limit than anything else.

People relying too much on inteepreted or bytecode languages end up making abstraction on what happens on the metal, forget the basics of good enough performance, and bam, even the fastest server looks like a piece of garbage.

I'll always be conservative regarding language choices, because if a language makes things easier, it should also be taken with a grain of salt.
