| Hi,
|
| I'm using JDK 1.1.3 on my linux box (RH 4.2), with Swing 1.0.1.
Im am using Swing 1.0.2.......
| (I 've only installed the JDK 1.1.3 rpm coming from Suse 5.2)
|
| I use this version since I 've seen that earlier versions had memory
| problems, and that is the "stable" version of the JDK.
|
| The problem is that Swing with this version of the JDK is very slow.
| Some person have mentionned here that Swing was working perfectly under
| linux, better than windows : for me, it's the contrary ! What's wrong with my
| configuration ?
Which version of JDK do you use? Because JDK1.1.6 for Win32 has got a
JIT and use that one by default (unless you explicitly disable the JIT
with java -nojit...)
JDK1.1.6v2 hasn't got a JIT built in, but you could use one called TYA
(v0.7: http://www.dragon1.net/software/tya/) and takes only 50K.
It improves the speed quite a bit (aprox. 3 times faster), but not as
dramatically as the JIT that comes with JDK1.1.6 for Win32 (symantec JIT).
Furthermore TYA is not entirely stable yet, but is definitely worth to try!

| Does the JDK 1.1.6v2 have enhanced graphic support ?
Don't know actually.....
