Quick follow-up: I'm trying to grab a Fedora installation DVD. In the meantine, a guy from JUG Genova was kind enough to try the blueMarine latest snapshot, and the problem seems not to be there, as you predicted (I'm just waiting to see the logs to have a confirmation). I'm trying today to close first this issue of mine; then I'll move on the benchmark stuff. In any case I can anticipate that the benchmark is completely open source in code and data, I'd just like to write some more information about how to run it (and maybe trying to reduce as much as possible the amount of code to download). See you later. PS I anticipate some unofficial numbers, hoping that the table format is not screwed out: Linux Ubuntu 8.0.4 W Java 1.6.0_06 OpenJDK 1.6.0b9 Java 1.5.0_15 1 0.38 0.28 1.93 0.76 0.44 0.38 2 0.35 0.22 1.44 0.49 0.37 0.33 3 0.34 0.24 1.32 0.58 0.41 0.33 4 0.40 0.25 1.31 0.62 0.41 0.36 These number refers to tests run on the same hardware; the lower the numberm, the faster the benchmark; three JDKs tested, a pair of numbers for each JDK: the former for -client, the latter for -server; W means "number of workers" (the test can be run in parallel, even though tests with 3 and 4 workers are not meaningful as I'm running on a dual core). You see that where Sun's Java makes 0.38, OpenJDK makes 1.93 (yikes!); with -server the numbers are 0.28 and 0.76 (better, but still 2.5x). -- fedora-devel-java-list mailing list fedora-devel-java-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-java-list
