Then how do you explain that the comparison benchmarks we've been
running on the same Intel/NT machines with 1 or 2 processors are twice
faster on the dual processor machine ? Not that I like Intel hardware
more than Sun's hardware, but Java performace on the same price range
Sun/Solaris box compared to an Intel/NT box is simply a joke. For some
reason, it seems that Sun thinks that making the VMs faster on NT is
gonna sell Sun servers.... go figure.

maybe you're *very* biased ?
