I am just starting to look at Scala, and wonder what others may think. Is it the next big thing in Java? Performance is critical. While Ruby and Groovy look nice, they don't perform well. Scala appears comparable to Java in performance. I very much like what I have seen thus far, but I have not yet used it. There are horses for courses, and I want firstly good performance comparable to Java, and secondly features above and beyond Java, and that includes brevity primarily without being cryptic.

I think performance is important, but static typing is the main point it is a viable alternative to both java and dynamic languages on jvm.
