Mostly related to performance - lower latency and higher throughput - we found 
in testing. Java 1.6 is a great improvement over previous but .NET is still 
faster (in our experience) and we fully expect .NET 4.0 to be faster again. 
Of course, most of the performance gains in anything are to do with how good 
the programmers are... and ours are good ;-)
