Absolutely, it is just that, another choice. I have not tried free-java-sdk, but as I can read in description it make a choice in tool, and it is just a package with the same aim of java-gcj-compat. Anyway, it has to be done a choice in building as if there are advances on using a java compiler over using another it _should_ be used that. But, as you noted, there are no benchmark now, on performance. There are a number of other factor for adopt a compiler over another of course, thus I just say it should be used and not must I have some hardware problem now, but what I would do is just benchmark performance of precompiled over non precompiled ecj in order to see if there is a real gain, and ecj is an example of a real application that probably do not need to load jar but is complex enough to see some comparition. I would not setup a java vm war. Daniele. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
