I think that the speed depends on what benchmark you run, though the new borland jit seems generally faster than the sunwjit that comes with 1.2pre2. There's a table of timings of several linux jits versus C at www.idiom.com/~zilla/Computer/javaCbenchmark.html

I've tested Borland javacomp with my 35K lines application, which uses a lot of swing+threads+rmi, and most of it worked fine (some problems). The most exciting was the performance improvement in some points. Important: my code does not run with sunjit ... performs better with tya ... but unfort

I took a look at this, and am intrigued. Can anyone comment on how stable the combination of this JIT and the 1.2 pre-release might be (I realize it'd be unlikely that anyone's tested this combination yet, I'm more concerned with the maturity of the 1.2 JDK)? I'm currently using
