Thanks to point me the single / several CPU reasons.
That could be the reason. So I need to re-check
my code.

Only a little. We tried it on linux (opteron). The IBM 1.5 exhibited
performance characteristics similar to the Sun JVM, and was quite a
bit slower than JRockit.

It did work though!

I'd be willing to bet that your PC is a single CPU and your AIX box
has several CPUs? It is probably a threading bug in your code. We
found that we could test our app on a single CPU box but only when we
moved it onto a real SMP box did all the threading bugs manifest
themselves...

We also found that the in-VM transport in MINA was great for
pinpointing subtle threading bugs.
