No one has said why JAVA would run too slowly on 68K type
Amigas. After all, I believe that, except for a very few, the
rest of us are using MC 68030 to MC 68060 powered Amigas going
from 25 Mhz to 75 Mhz. Sure, not as fast as the Pentiums, but
being that the Amiga is so efficient, it makes up for a lot of
the speed that the Intel type chip needs in the MS Box. Now, if
that is still a problem, then okay, but, I still would like
someone to explain why an Amiga (MC68040 at 25Mhz) could not
handle it.

Good point, except, I do not run *any* background programs
like DOpus or Enforcer or SnoopDOS, and I have usually had V get
stuck. Why is that? In fact, until someone can show me how to
prevent V from being such a memory hog and not releasing memory,
I may not use it again. I have 2 megs of Chip and 16 megs of
Fast. I should not need 4 megs of Fast and 32 megs of Fast to
assure sufficient RAM. When AWeb is finished, it gives back all
of the RAM it used.
