No, this is pretty much what I'd expect. Windows has a lot more
resources to develop JVM's. It has always been the fastest
platform to run Java on.

sunwjit, or are you running tya? Tya is really very good, but I
haven't measured the increase in memory.

Maybe IBM will release a JVM for 1.2 that's more efficient. The
blackdown is a straight port from the solaris version, and I've
got a funny feeling they're not allowed (by the license) to
distribute modifications other than that required to do the port
itself. (ie, no rewrites for performance enhancements). Maybe
sun will release the hotspot sourcecode to us!
