I absolutely agree. In fact, I have seen wretched behavior from ALL Java applications on FreeBSD....this included using native JDK 1.3.1 and the Linux-Sun port of 1.4.1. For example:
JEdit will just not run....the JVM chokes after a few moments of execution. Eclipse (the IDE) just will not work with any sort of regularity.... Forte dies after a few moments of execution with the same type of errors as JEdit. Basically ANYTHING with a GUI does not work....
