Agreed, screw SPEC, I vote on focusing on DaCapo which, IMO, provide an even better picture of real life applications and JVM variability. I have also convinced myself that scimark2 is not that great of a benchmark and tuning for it might mislead other things that are way more important to our user base (like running tomcat or eclipse). -- Stefano.
