Yep, I evaluated it about a week ago. It's VERY fast and pretty reliable.

However it's only 1.1.6 and I really need 1.2 for my work, but I think it 
shows us that IBM is serious about Java.

P.S.

Please note that IBM have only appeared to have released a version for glibc 
2.1 NOT 2.0. So don't bother unless you are running suse 6.1 or Redhat 6.0 
or a glibc 2.1 based system.

You can pick it up from;
