> If apply all the optimization techniques on C++ programs and optimize every bit of it (remember you have all the time to do it), how Java program runs faster in Hotspot if Hotspot only optimize portion(hot spot) of it? Not to mention the time Hotspot spends to profile the program. Hotspot knows more run-time information?
