The working premise here is that -current is my prefered platform of choice for pure HotSpot development. If that fails to serve my purposes then I'll think about moving to -stable. BTW, I was multiplying the os::sleep() values by 1000x, which made the Java2D demo slow. ;) I fixed that and it runs more reasonably now with only a 3.8x slow down from the native Linux JVM on my Debian box. That's probably because I'm running a debug version of HotSpot. I expect it to be faster (I got a glimpse of it) with the production version. The signs are definitely encouraging. I need to quit this project and move onto something that's more mainstream for my career, so I might drop it anyways. I'm getting low on cash here. :\ I'll keep you folks informed. bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
