JAVAC or JIKES ?


Jikes is a lot faster that Javac. Thats about it AFAIK.


I've heard that claim as well, but also that recent javac versions have closed the performance gap. So I really don't know whether jikes still has a performance advantage. However, I do prefer the greater number of warnings that jikes can be configured to produce (e.g., by adding the "+P +Pall +Pno-serial" compiler arguments).


Oh yeah.. I forgot about the compiler warnings. Its been a couple of years or more since I used Jikes. I dont care if my apps take a bit longer to compile these days, it just means I have more time to drink my coffee :)
