I wonder what "JVM startup time" actually IS... There may be a distinction between the startup time for ANY language starting a JVM and the work a specific language e.g java has to do once the common stuff is set up. Then again there might not be. :-)

(mildly OT) Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> That JRuby work you're doing sounds interesting, Scott. Please keep us all posted. There are many ways to avoid JVM re-startup time. To pick one example, CICS Transaction Server (Version 2.3 and higher) includes the "continuous JVM" feature. The URL for Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) somehow got broken in my last e-mail. (A trailing parenthesis should not have been there.) Here's another attempt: http://www.ibm.com/rational/eglcafe EGL Community Edition is now available for download there. It's free, and of course you can deploy your EGL programs to z/OS. See the "JZOS Cookbook" if you'd like Ant setup instructions for Eclipse to automate deployment. - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan / Asia-Pacific E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
