For a developer tool? Genuine question, how long does the JVM take to start? It used to be slow, but I don't know what it's like now. Check out the speed comparison of a few linters on this page -> https://astral.sh. Would the JVM start before the fastest one finished?
And supposing you took start time out of it, how long would an equivalent Java program take to run?
Memory isn't as much of an issue, but all other things being equal users do prefer the program that consumes less memory.
