One of our guys noticed that the server VM made a big difference in our
app, so I decided to try it myself. I was shocked at how hard it is to
get the server VM from Sun -- for the Windows platform. I eventually
had to get the whole J2EE and dig around in the installed app server to
find the VM. None of the J2SE installs seem to include it anymore (I'm
pretty sure they used to).
Maybe Apple hasn't ported it because they can't find it. ;)
% java
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)
where options include:
-client to select the "client" VM
-server to select the "server" VM
[ snip ]
% uname -sr
Darwin 7.5.0
% java -version
java version "1.4.2_05"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_05-141.3)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-38, mixed mode)
maybe ... maybe :)
There is a difference between having a command-line option available
for compatibility purposes and actually implementing a server VM.
