Will patchset 9 be adjusted for hotspot to u= se=20 the system gcc on -STABLE (ie gcc 2.9 instead of 3.2)... And will it be=20 possible to have the JDK compiled so that -classic and -hotspot builds ca= n=20 coexist? I have successfully compiled up p8 on my box with the system compiler and= it=20 appears to work well. I have also examined the work in jdk1.4 and merged = it=20 into 1.3 so that it no longer depends on the uthread_private.h kernel sou= rce. A "nice" little fun test for java is at www.motionplayground.com With it, you notice that JDK1.3p8 is still way slower than JDK1.4p3 And that JDK1.3p7+tya can perform more smoothly than p8... So - theres still some important issues in hotspot in 1.3.
