Java 22 local LLM runner via Project Panama and libargus.cc
July 14, 2026
This implementation uses OpenJDK Panama's Foreign Function & Memory API to interface directly with llama.cpp and whisper.cpp, bypassing REST sidecar latency. A custom C++ library, libargus.cc, provides a structured ABI for zero-allocation execution of ggml compute graphs directly within the JVM.
