My tests showed that at least Mono (www.go-mono.com) is actually faster than Java for loops and prints and some basic constructs (http://freeroller.net/page/acoliver/20030126#a_java_developer_responds_1012). However, I have it on good authority that once you move into actual libraries Java shines well. In particular the XML transformation under C# is several hundred times slower. Meaning a previously 30 second transformation took several minutes with roughly the same code. (I'm confident that they knew what they were doing)

Could someone post some tests and numbers that show how much faster Java is

btw.. I'm just curious and have always found it useful to show proof rather
than speculation...

Store implementation. What ever
happened to a Java formal response, especially one that a manager can
understand. My 2 bits.


Be aware that this is a Microsoft propaganda ploy.

Pet Store was designed to *illustrate* architectural techniques, not to be
measured as to performance.

The proper response is that real Java-based applications (as opposed to
reimplementations of toy ones) are just as fast as .Net ones, often


faster.
