Definitely not java.
I agree, up to a point, but some of your premises are wrong:
but in the end you'll be doomed by the overhead of the virtual machine no matter what.
You are jumping into a classical confusion between the language-java and the JVM. Java can also be compiled to platform-specific code ;) and JIT compilers are remarkably efficient at optimizing the bytecode only once at program startup. Actually, probably writing in C++ is still better for performance, however this bond is not as ineliminable as it seems.
Also, I'm not sure that java will quite have all the functionality you'll need.
There are no functionalities actually lacking in java. Stefano "Raistlin" Zanero System Administrator Gioco.Net public PGP key block at http://gioco.net/pgpkeys
