The Disruptor needs Java 6. Internally it uses the sun.misc.Unsafe class. There may be JVMs that do not have this class, although I doubt that is actually the case: many of the java.* classes in the Oracle implementation rely on it. I know that the Azul JVM has this class.
I was worried that there may be scenarios where an application would not have the security privileges to use this class. I haven't checked if such scenarios exist...
