I'm skeptical. Not trying to start a flame war or anything, but Twitter
isn't exactly the most reliable website in the world. If the reason it's
down all the time is Scala (and Twitter has a bad reputation for being down
all the time) then I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole as it clearly has
scaling issues.

Also, the Java part isn't too appealing either.
