I think this is more of a coincidence. Translets try to allocate as few objects as possible. Other JVM's may be better optimized for object creation/initialization. Sun's, on the other hand, does a pretty good job finding the "hot spots" and this could be the reason why translets run fast. As to why 1.4 is slower? This is puzzling. The first thing that comes to mind is the new assertion mechanism but, as far as I know, it is completely turned off by default (or isn't?). -- Santiago Pericas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
