Fast and Lightweight Spring Boot Applications with GraalVM
summary
Spring Boot 3.0 apps compile to GraalVM native executables using the native Maven/Gradle plugins and a community reachability repo; a demo shows a simple app building in 44s into a 46 MB executable that starts in 47 ms versus ~1.1s on the JVM and uses ~69 MB RSS. Spring AI demo is 111 MB native and works without extra config. Throughput is on par with JVM (≈50k req/s) and remains ≈50k req/s on half the JVM memory. Use JVM for dev, build native in CI, use tracing agent or contributed configs for reflective libs.
