Hi,
For the Swing Peers, right now, the model is like that
AWT -> AWT Peers -> "Swing Peers" --> AWT --> AWT Peers --> Native Peers
That's a very complicated Model that we will have if we use SwingToolkit.
But is that possible to reduce it. I think it can reduce lots of memory and
increase
the speed in both current JVM and future JOS.
Regards,
Hilary
