summary
Project highlights and what actually happens: Project Valhalla value classes remove identity headers to flatten objects and improve cache locality, plus null‑restricted value classes to increase flattening chances. Observability demo uses Quarkus + OpenTelemetry on AKS with GitHub Copilot chat to auto‑generate YAML and a load test of 300 virtual users against a MicroSweeper app. Spring AI shows a Spring Boot + Azure OpenAI app, prompt‑stuffing with embeddings for RAG over PDFs. JVM warmup fixes include AOT, ReadyNow, JIT‑as‑a‑service and checkpoint CRaC cutting first‑transaction from 4s→38ms.
