It used NIO from 1.4, from what the author tells me. Perhaps I 
should take this to the java list. Join me there?

Hmm, I should have used apropos, I see.

Well, that page tells me what malloc.conf would do it there was 
one, and I guess it explains why I don't have one. So long as 
there's no harm in it not existing.

I mean to say, the program being examined looks to 
/etc/malloc.conf and carries on, not truss(1).

Could you be more specific regarding the Java application. First off, what 
version of the JDK(s) are you using? What type of application is it? Please 
provide a few more details. 

Regards,

Weston

 Second, some friends of mine have a java application that runs
 under the Leading Brand, Solaris and Linux, but I can't get
 anywhere with it in FreeBSD.

 The most recent version dumped core when a non-root user runs it.
 Root gets to see it spawn half a dozen processes and suck up all
 the CPU, to no practical purpose.

Yes, of course.

java version 1.4.1
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-b21, mixed mode)

The application consists of a webcrawler, a parsing engine and a 
database, similar to a search engine. In earlier versions of the 
JDK and the application, it ran well enough to display an admin 
UI: this version fails to get that far.

In earlier versions on FreeBSD I assume. 

I have noticed a number of instabilities on 1.4.1 on FreeBSD. Have you tried 
using the native JDK?

I didn't realize there was one: I was using the 1.4.1 version in

Yeah, that could be the issue. The native JDK is at 

/usr/ports/java/jdk13

You will have to download the linux binary for the JDK to build on FreeBSD, 
however, after the JDK build procedure is completed the linux binary can go 
away. If you cd to the above directory and run

make install clean

The build script will point you to the correct location as to where to 
download the file. 

As a point of curiosity, I have indeed noticed numerous inconsistencies and 
problems across all JDK's for FreeBSD. However, the native JDK 1.3 has proven 
to be the best among those offered. 

Regards,

Weston
