Indeed. But this is not Solaris 10 - thats when all of this

I never understood why anyone would go to Solaris 10 unless they
had a
64 bit processor and compiled all their apps under a 64 bit
compiler.
Sun
didn't either, which is why they originally didn't come out with a
Solaris x86
version of Solaris 10 They only came out with it after much
screaming.
I run it (Solaris 10) on a dual Athlon 2800+ MP box. As a server.
No X-Windows. To run java. And it runs java better than the same
box did with Linux and the sun jvm.
Is the Java version your running restricted to Solaris 10 and above?
I don't know.
Is Solaris 10 faster/stabler with Java than older Solaris versions?
I just got involved with Solaris after 10 was made "Free" (see the
yahoo Solarisx86 list for that discussion -- the same list where this
thread originally started I think before it forked) so I have no
baseline to compare against. I had been running a gentoo Linux 2.4.x
kernel for java processing (before the FreeBSD 1.4 jvm got as good as
it is now) and when the machine had problems, I put Solaris 10 on it
as a test since it has some good resource management stuff for RAM
and CPU etc that I wanted to use with my various java backend
customers and my simple tests showed the same java apps with better
performance than the same HW had with linux... ymmv
