I must admit that I didn't do very much magic with JDK 1.1.2 for it to be faster. I mostly assembled patches from other people (Keith White, Jeffrey Hsu, the Linux folks, ...) I'm trying to follow this release of JDK 1.1.5 but I just can't keep up. I'm now working full time on a Java/Database product and also finishing my thesis during the remaining few hours. This is not a good period for me to devote time on this project but I promise to contribute when I get the time. I've released the patchkit of my JDK port to Nate, so if there's anything worth moving from JDK 1.1.2 to 1.1.5, Nate can probably help ;-) Regards, Alex.
