Spring Boot on Project Leyden: The AOT Cache Recipe That Actually Works
Spring Boot 4 supports the JDK 25+ AOT cache - and published benchmarks show 2-4x faster startup. The recipe, the numbers, and the one step (extract the JAR) that decides whether you get the win.
Project Leyden: Java’s AOT Caching Revolution
Project Leyden's AOT cache cuts Java startup by ~78% on small services and roughly 3s to under 1s on large ones - no code changes, JIT intact. What it caches, how it differs from GraalVM native, the Quarkus recipe, and the operational catches.
Quarkus Native vs JIT: The Banking Reality Check
Quarkus native cuts startup to 17ms and RSS to 37MB - but Quarkus's own 2026 lab says going native roughly halves throughput. A banking decision guide.
