I couldn't find a definitive answer in the archives. Are the intel based Macs going to use the Sun JVM or still some custom Apple JVM? Is this even a possibility with fink or anything else? I've personally found the Apple JVM to be significantly slower than x86 JVM or pretty much any Sun JVM on any platform. Would it be likely to expect performance increases in Eclipse (a Java application) for example with the intel based Macs?


The MacOSX JVM on PPC is HotSpot, ported to PPC.

The MacOSX JVM on x86 is HotSpot.

If you are interested in VM-level performance, the MacOSX JVM on x86 supports the C2 ("server") JIT compiler, in addition the C1 ("client") JIT compiler.
