Windows? Maybe you're helping make my point that Java runs slower on Windows
than on Linux--not surprising since the two major Java VM vendors (Sun and
IBM) have their primary technical expertise on Linux/UNIX. Therefore, by
using "portable" Java solution you're giving up performance on Windows. If
you want maximum performance on Windows, you should use .NET (which, of
course, means giving up portability to Linux).
Again, my point is consistent--the trade-off is between portability and
performance. By choosing portability, you've sacrificed performance.

*Pardon*.
Our (portable) Weblogic on (portable) Linux out performs the same
platform
running on (non-portable) Windows. On lower cost hardware.
By leveraging Java, we get all the intergration we could ever want,
and we're
portable too.
It's best to design to standards and keep portablility in mind, in
general.
Then should the worst happen, you can jump platforms relativly
easyily.
