Its slower than most of other languages and it use a lot of RAM, but it depends on quality of the code. Everything can be done in any language. But some language are just more simple to use for certain tasks.

It has a really strict syntax and sometimes it is more verbose than it should. Furthermore, it does few things behind the scenes and requires from the developers to specify exactly what they want to do. These characteristics are not common in scripting languages like Python and JavaScript, which are frequently the first languages learned by novice developers. These languages are less likely to complain and they make assumptions if something written by the developer is not clear enough (e.g. automatic type conversion in JavaScript). In my opinion, this is the main reason that so many people hate and critisise Java.
