Issue
I'm wondering if there is an OS that can run java bytecode without a Java installation, like a JavaOS (I know there is something called JavaOS, but I don’t think I want that). All I want to do is run one java program on my laptop, and it seems wasteful to run all the processes that are started with linux along with it. I'm thinking that the laptop would boot into it, and immediately start the java code.
Does anything like this exist?
Edit:
I'm looking for performance boosts.
Solution
You can take linux and remove all the things you don't want.
However OSes are pretty good at minimizing the impact of programs which don't do much.
