Odd, given that so much of the new stuff in Java 6 are features for
producing better desktop applications.
If you're referring to Java API features, you get them irrespective of
the VM. As far as speed is concerned, the 64-bit VM should, in general,
be faster than the the 32-bit client VM.
Over time, I've come to understand it like that too. It will however
make for perceived sluggishness on starting up.
Others in this thread have
noted improved Netbeans performance. Try your favourite app and see how
it does.
Pratik
An apparent Apple-man!
Say, will you then release a 32 bits version? On earlier OSs?
Have you anything to say on Java's future on Mac (as the past hasn't
been to fantastic in regards to Java 6)? JDK 7? Will Sun take over the
development of Java on Mac, or will you still make your thing? Is it
correct to take Jobs' statement about Java on iPhone to mean that you
will abandon Java on Apple products? .. at least as a "first class citizen"?
I think you ought to say _something_ to your followers about the future
of their investment in your platform (when combined with java).
Kind regards,
Endre Stølsvik
