I've asked Henri Gomez, founder of openjdk-osx-build, to clarify. I
assume it will be updated to u2 soon, and if that's the case I'll use
that URL instead.

I know pik can manage Ruby versions...does it also handle Java
versions? I could not find documentation to that effect.

Fixed.

users will know what to do.

I'll see if I can come up with something. The red/black tree bench is
a pretty good one, but I'll turn it into a single-file gist.

Thanks!
