Well, since you asked: 0/ test, test, test: that is, test load and functionality under various JVMs. See which one performs best, per your requirements. 1/ Tune, tune, tune: there's much more to performance than just the JDK. You'll also have to take heap, GC, etc into consideration. 2/ install this same JVM + configuration in production. Ideally, you'd have similar hardware in both your test and production environments, such that any tuning you do could be applied to both. Given what I see on the list, I get the impression most of the people here (or at least, most of the posters ;) use Sun's JVM. -but YYMV, and thus, you'd do yourself a favor to test it for yourself. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
