Actually, HotSpot JVM benches just as fast and even faster than C/C++ for some things. You have no idea about what you're talking about.Libraries can be rebuilt with minimal effort since the two languages are almost identical. C# is a much better language in terms of performance, security, and usability than Java. The industry changes all the time and I think that in this case it will be no different. Whether it be Visual Basic or C# (probably C#), .NET will most likely take over Java. That is, of course, unless Java's performance doesn't improve drastically.
Security? Usability? The languages are almost identical. The PE structure takes slightly more time to reverse engineer but at the same time it's just as easy.
Java is not actually slow at all.
Please do some of your own benches rather than spout stats from 2013.
