Yes, the performance of these structures is a concern for low-level computing, but in most cases (where the Java designers focused), they aim to make the developer's work more productive and readable (the responsibility for the efficiency and management of resources is delegated to the VM). Even so, analyzes of this type are important for people focused on the development of JVMs, where efficiency does play a truly critical role.
