Ok, massive confusion and loss of brain cells....

I have installed:

Java Plug-in 1.6.0_05-ea

I don't have a particular need to diddle with the registry right now as 
outlined in the forum pointed to in Dmitri's last post.

I get a pretty good boost in performance with 1.6.0_05-ea.  But there is no D3D 
acceleration in this release -- right?

D3D is only in ...05-ea-b04 -- right?

So I'll wait to test D3D acceleration in my applet when the install is more 
straight forward.

In the mean time, all you guys can use my applet as a standard comparison test 
-- if you want.

It prints out times for a computational task and a painting task in the console.

Here's some results I got on an 800 mhz machine with an old GeForce 2 video 
card.

SFAIK this is just a self-extracting jar file that dumps
the files on disk - its not an installer.
You must use one of the installer downloads - eg the .exe download

Hi,

I downloaded jre-6u5-ea-bin-b04-windows-i586-27_sep_2007.jar to try D3D
acceleration.  When I install it, there is no installation as browser
plugin.

I imagine this is intentional.  Is there a way to force it to be a
browser plugin?

I would like to see real world performance in the browser.

I tried jre-6u5-ea-windows-i586-p-iftw.exe and that gives me about a
three time performance boost in general computation and about a 1/3'd
performance boos in drawing.

I'd like to compare the beta in the same environment.
