Almost. I worked on a production CORBA system with applet client
and custom server for intranets (1-5000 users, no tunneling or anything).
We did a trial conversion to RMI & EJBs, and found the performance of RMI
to be significantly better than CORBA, though that may be due to the fact
that we made heavy use of CORBA Anys. Anyway, we didn't end up converting
at the time (a few months ago) because a major client demanded Macintosh
support, and while we could use a Java 1 client and Java 2 server with
CORBA, we could not find a good EJB platform that would allow that (and
Mac doesn't have a Java 2 VM yet).
My 2 cents.
