> run through a VM

This is just incorrect use/understanding of Java’s execution model. It does have a runtime, but it is definitely not a VirtualBox VM.



What are you talking about? No one brought machine/platform virtualization into this conversation other than you.

The bytecode interpreter for Java (and other similar languages) is literally called a Virtual Machine, due to the way it functions:

It would seem your understanding of the Java execution model is flawed.
