They're mostly rational low-memory optimisations, but I wasn't expecting to have to put in so many. It would be good if applets could request a different, more aggressive GC like you can from the command line.

Using the server VM, anyway. --snip-- > .7 Will run on "free" jvms : I'll start a new thread soon about it... So has Kaffe or whatever been confirmed working by anyone yet?

Other stuffs aren't used in the curent code ;) Yeah, nor have I but someone reported it recently. --snip-- > I haven't run any JVM on windows since to long to have the right to > express my PoV, If you would like to change the "recommanded" JVM on the > windows part of the download page, feel free to do it, but please, add > that Freenet can still run on 1.4 somewhere else (on the *NIX part for > example ^-^). Sure, will do. Bob
