Hi,


   4.2 and 4.3 FreeBSD on two 2xcpu smp systems. linux-jdk1.3 and =
linux-jdk1.4beta.

   I have had such odd results with java on FreeBSD (somethings run and =
others dont) that I decided to run a test. The test was to run a =
standard piece of software against these two jdk's. That being Jakarta =
Tomcat 3.2.2. Cant get more standard than that. It is the standard =
actually. Interesting that it didnt work. Hotspot blows chunks on a =
regular basis ( java.core's). I agree with an eariler comment that =
threads are probably a serious problem here.

   I have no idea whether it is a problem with FreeBSD, =
linux-threads/emulation or the jdk's themselves. Here is an obvious =
question. Do the developers of the "core" code (kernel/emulators/jdk's =
etc) bother testing against something as basic as this? Is this a =
problem that is being fixed in 5? Should I be running 5? Is FreeBSD =
doomed to serving applets or simple servlets? (It's dead if it is IMO).

   Something isnt right here. Any help would be appreciated. (I'm mainly =
talking to the developers of the core code I think).

Thanks
Jim
