Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Possibly stupid question, is java the right language for low latency and high throughput web servers?
I was about to suggest Chronicle, but it looks like they have gone closed-source. The older version is still interesting to look through though. Aeron / Disruptor / SBE are good projects for inspiration as well.

Could you evaluate how it compares with SBE?

I made an NBT-based data format, but a little more general purpose

Parsing Protobuf at 2+GB/S: How I Learned to Love Tail Calls in C
Consider a valid protobuf message with such a field. If you can locate the field value bytes, you can write a new value to the same location without breaking the message. It's obviously possible to the same with the varint type too, as long as you don't change the number of bytes - not so practical, but useful for enum field which has a limited set of useful values (usually less than 128).
Pregenerating protobuf messages you want to send and then modifying the bytes in-place before sending is going to give you a nice performance boost over "normal" protobuf serialization. It can be useful if you need to be protobuf compatible, but it's obviously better to use something like SBE - https://github.com/real-logic/simple-binary-encoding
