Running more than one JVM

[Scot P. Floess]

I have posted this question before, but received no responses.  I hope someone can help!

I am running RedHat Linux 5.0 on a pentium 166 with 128 MB of RAM, 2.5 GB harddrive, and 127 MB swap file.  I am using the JDK 1.1.5 from Blackdown.  I notice that the JVM runs VERY slow and hogs my system.  OK, I downloaded the TYA JIT and I get some speed improvements.  However, when I attempt to run more than one JVM, my system is virtually unusable - the harddrive thrashes, the .  I have had problems getting the JDK 1.1.6 running, so I have been sticking with the 1.1.5.  If I cannot resolve this problem, I am going to drop Linux and go with Solaris 2.6.

Thanks in advance!
