I do, in fact. I think this crusade against bytecode that you're talking about is largely at best a waste of time and resources. If you have reliable benchmarks for specific real-world programs shipped in Fedora (i.e. not synthetic benchmarks) where AOT compilation (be that via GCJ or Hotspot's) is better, it might make sense to do so for those programs. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
