BEA's JRockit is absurdly fast, and seems stable while running, but has some issues stopping. It is supported by BEA if you are running RedHat AS and don't mind forking over a couple thousand dollars, otherwise it is simply available an unsupported. We have seen substantial speed benefits using it in development, but haven't been brave enough to put it into production because of the shutdown issues.
IBM's JRE/JDK has had similar performance characteristics for us to Sun's. It works fine. It gets brownie points for installing to /opt via rpm.

Hi Folks,
I am setting up Cocoon on a Linux box for the first time (I am new to Linux).
Is this a good JVM to be running, or is there a stable 1.4.1 for this platform?
% java -version
java version "1.3.1"
