Alex Diniș, CTO at BMW Romania, shares hard numbers from his real-world experiment benchmarking Quarkus against Spring Boot across startup time, memory footprint, Docker image size, and tail latency — then translates every measurement into cloud costs and developer impact.
We released Quarkus 3.27.5, the next maintenance release for the 3.27 LTS stream.
We released Quarkus 3.33.3, the next maintenance release for the 3.33 LTS stream.
We released Quarkus 3.38, which comes with weight-based eviction for Hibernate second level Caffeine cache regions, and more.
The OpenJDK team says don't pool virtual threads. We measured what pooling buys - 8% less allocation - and what it costs - 60 MB of near-empty stack chunks - and found that it saves the cheap thing and keeps the expensive one.
We released Quarkus 3.37.4, a regular maintenance release.
We found our benchmark was measuring Spring's warmup, not its peak. We changed it. Spring's numbers went up. Quarkus's didn't. That's what fairness looks like.
Curated online stories, articles, and videos about Quarkus are available in the July 2026 edition of the Quarkus Newsletter.
Quarkus Shim lets you change the behavior of Java classes during the Quarkus build, with support for JVM mode, dev mode, and native executables.
We released Quarkus 3.37.3, a regular maintenance release.
