Hi Digit and all, My conclusion is that Dalvik is going to be interpreter-based and not a JIT, at least for the first version. As David has said you guys are doing all the work, you have the hardaware and software all togheter so you're the most entitled to say Android is running fast or slow.
My concern is that when large, resource consuming and highly object- oriented applications will be written for the Android platform we will see an unacceptable slowness and the platform will become unresponsive. I was asking about performance in the first place because I'm working on a project that aims to provide some kind of Java hardware acceleration. To be more specific our hardware interpreter could replace the slow software interpreter. Out results so far are encouraging: 1000% - 2000% speed increase factors over the currently JIT or hardware (Jazelle) solutions. My question is how we can work together to benchmark and evaluate the additional costs and benefits of this solution within the Android platform.
