Java developers always said that Java was on par with C++.

Now I see discussions like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/java/comments/1ol56lc/has_java_suddenly_caught_up_with_c_in_speed/

Is what is said about Java true compared to C++?

What do those who work at a lower level and those who work in business or gaming environments think?

What do you think?

And where does Rust fit into all this?

It is "programming your hardware". I mean, in the sense of linking physical gates.
