Hey,

1)
I now use the pre-build ports and kernel. (4.9-Release)
What performance-gain do I obtain by building my own kernel and 
compiling the ports ? (the system is a PIII 500 Mhz with 512 MB ram)

Does the extra work and efforts compare to the gain ?


2)
Installing Eclipse on my box drives me completely nuts.
The dependencies of the package requires:
the diablo jdk, apache ant ...
But during installing apache-ant it also wanted jdk 1.2.2,
which requires linux-blackdown jdk.

3 jdk's needed ? Or am I wrong ?
www.freebsd.org/java doesn't help me.

The automatic installation procedure of eclipse got interrupted because 
the sun jdk package needs manual download. Did that affect my systems 
consistency ?

Thanx in advance

Bert
