I know... this is a troll.... but it sort of resonates with me about the way Java development works - people have to fix on a JVM version to get real like-a-rock stability and work about bugs in that release, and Java is just dreadful in resource management (in particular memory footprint) meaning you have to give it really beefy machines to run on.
http://www.internalmemos.com/memos/memodetails.php?memo_id=1321 This is why I think i have alot of reluctance to move to Java; C is by far my prefered strongly-typed, "non-scripting" language. But I am a dinosaur... For guys who do run Java as part of their production code in bioinformatics, (a) do you have versioning problems over time? (b) are there resource problems or not? If so, how do you deal with these? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ewan Birney.
