And I think you mean "far" not "for" =P Okay, but this is good news. I'm looking forward to a port. I must say that I find the JDK I'm using (ps 9) very stable. I've used it for a couple of months, without any problems. And Swing apps are *much* faster than on Blackdown 1.2.2 RC3, but about the same speed as on the Sun Linux 1.3.0 JDK (pre-release). I assume a native FreeBSD JDK 1.3 might give us a major performance increase then :) I run all JDKs without a JIT.
