My comment was not particularly aimed at Java, but there are many times I've been using a computer only to have one program bring it to its knees, and prevent me from doing more than one thing at once. Whether that be Java, or Flash, or anything else. It seems far too common that a programmer would not care that their program is ridiculously inefficient to the point that multitasking becomes nearly impossible. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
