I agree it is good to see (yeah Linux), but it is also a strange comparison.
But my point was, is Micro$oft's sdk really a TRUE JVM? Didn't they buy performace
at the cost of portablity? Don't they play funny games with the low level calls
that get close to the OS?
I have no first hand knowledge, but I question: is a High Performance compiler
that different from a vendor that doesn't follow the standard and regularly adjust
the OS to make an application perform (have you ever notice what DLL's get loaded
in the system directory during an install).
Just my $.02.....
Cheers Tod...
