ten times faster ?... since the PC processor runs 6 times faster than the SunOS one, I guess there is also a slight difference due to another factor, maybe hard drive speed/quality, maybe the JVM ? If you have some float numbers calculations, this may be a factor too, I know that AMDK6-2 (running at 600 MHz) is bad on float numbers...
So you may not worry that much and try on Sun OS with a speedy processor ;-) Just my humble two cents. I personnally use a P3@933 MHz at work, and it runs fine ;-) -- website : www.babsfrance.fr.st ICQ : 135868405 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Brusa" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 3:41 PM Subject: Sun vs. PC > Hi all > > We're developing a cocoon-application (so far only xslt pipelines, > no apps) on a SunOS server. > Everything works out well, but we're experiencing heavy > performance problems.
