Not anymore. My production java app - mantainig data in a database - is running fine on a Pentium 300Mhz with 64M ram -with Win98 as a client :-) NT/2k/XP are memory hogs. Win 2k doesn't even start with less than 80M Ram. Startup memory with main menu open: Java process: 23M Ram. Java heap usage: 2M Ram. Opening a swing frame with about 25 components: less than 1M Ram. Opening a swing frame with 10 tab panels and about 350 simple components (labels, textfields, buttons, comboboxes, checkboxes, ...): 3M Ram. Table with 30k rows, 120 columns (only 130k distinct values) 40M. Java isn't slow or a memory hog anymore.
