I googled "java option server" and found this tidbit which goes into more detail: <quote> In the article "Performance Tuning in Java", Java Developer's Journal, August 2002, Dov Kruger wrote: "Let's start by saying that if you want a program to run fast, get JDK 1.4 and run it with optimization turned on: java -server MyClass The -server option scans the entire loaded program as it's being run, eliminating methods by inlining them, turning methods into native assemblers, removing constant evaluations from loops, and other optimizations. It improves performance, often by a factor of 10 in CPU-intensive bits of code. It might surprise you to think about optimizing programs at runtime, but considering that Java runs on different machine, the only way to optimize for your processor is at runtime. </quote> __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
