Really when you're writing for scale being able to optimize to whatever is going to max the cores out is important. Just so happens thats simple big imperative loops of fixed memory size.

how many times will you miss the point

that's just being a glutton for tools. Tools that get you further away from the actual solution to the problem, for some advantage that usually has nothing to do with the problem itself.

so I can debug it then

I'm not that impressed by Kotlin. I'd rather just use Java desu. Clojure is neat, though.

Ada 2012 with SPARK 2014. Based and suck it.

I like Ada but I never learned that much of it. How fast is it?

Current C++, Java/Scala/Kotlin, Python, JS, Go and all the other things people use

Your good choice of algorithms and/or 3rd party software frameworks.

See, even if you can spend a year optimizing a small hack in ASM and it may end up being the worldwide bedt implenentation of that, you're unlikely to implement the full functionality of Apache Spark or the Linux kernel on your own, never mind optimize it more than the originals...

The newer JVM languages are as good as it gets.
