JDK 10 is a production-ready implementation of the Java SE 10 Platform Specification, as specified by JSR 383 in the Java Community Process.
Key features include:
- Local-variable type inference: enhances the Java language to extend type inference to declarations of local variables with initializers.
- Parallel Full GC for G1: improves G1 worst-case latencies by making the full GC parallel.
- Application Class-Data Sharing: optimizes startup time and footprint by extending the existing Class-Data Sharing ("CDS") feature to allow application classes to be placed in the shared archive.
- Experimental Java-Based JIT Compiler: enables the Java-based JIT compiler, Graal, to be used as an experimental JIT compiler on the Linux/x64 platform
