Hi all,

Just thought that I would post about a performance benchmark that I made
with some colleagues at work. We wanted to test whether java could beat c++
in performance, so we implemented a bubblesort in both java and c++.

When I used the BEA 1.5 SDK, the c++ code was approximately twice as fast.
Disappointed, I went and downloaded the Sun 1.6 JDK and voila, the same
bubblesort ran TWICE as fast as the c++ version. (c++ code was compiled with
optimizations that favored fast code)

Perhaps there are ways to optimize the c++ code further but I'm pretty
impressed. Feel like upgrading all my installations to 1.6 now!
