Anyone else try this? Advice? > Ouch, this is ambitious. I had not thought about it, but it sounds interesting, and very challenging, to say the least. On a sidenote, there used to be a JVM for the alpha by the name of CACAO, that promised very high performance, but, according to http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/java/cacao/index.html one would thought that development had been abandoned. However, i fount this email from the autor posted to iecc, http://compilers.iecc.com/comparch/article/99-11-062, maybe we should contact him ? Regards. Roberto BTW, i will check out that sources for the jdk too. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
