How Fast is Spring

Explore a comprehensive analysis of Spring's performance in this 54-minute conference talk from Spring I/O 2019 in Barcelona. Delve into common myths and assumptions about the runtime costs of using Spring, examining data from extensive benchmarks to challenge preconceptions about slowness, component scanning, autoconfiguration, binding, and use of reflection. Focus on JVM startup time while also considering total resource usage and other runtime overheads. Discover why Spring is not slow, contrary to popular belief, and learn about useful optimizations that can be derived from performance measurements. Gain insights into the types of applications that may experience slower startup times and understand the underlying reasons. Access accompanying slides for a visual aid to the presentation's key points.
