Hi Daniel, indeed it makes sense to compare the performance both implementations of java.math package using the real applications. If you have any results could you plase to make them public? I want to look at them. Besides I'd pefer to slightly correct you about the SVN repository already contains full implemenation of the java.math package for Java 1.5 (please look at the HARMONY-380 issue for details).
Thanks, Vladimir Gorr Intel Middleware Products Division.
