Those scores seems to be produced by HotSpot Client VM. If HotSpot Server VM was used, the score of Sun J2SDK 1.4.2 will be higher than 7500. JNode is a great effort, I respect it and performance will not be the primary target of the harmony. But Sun's runtime performes better than the page shows. Sorry for being off-topic a little. P.S. I found One of benchmark programs, Sieve.java in jnodesources-0.2.0.tar.gz looks same as Sieve.java distributed with TYA (*1). The Sieve.java has been distributed with TYA since 1999 at least, but one with JNode 0.2.0 has a line "Copyright (C) 2005 JNode.org". Is Sieve.java in public domain?
