I am definetly out of my depth here, but... Speaking of GCJ's JIT... Sometime back, Ian Rogers here brought up the PearColator project at: http://www.binarytranslator.org/ *** I have been working on an open source Java based PowerPC emulator based around a JVM's optimising compiler. If you have long running server like workloads then I have found the performance is approaching QEMU fast whilst having memory supported by a page based system. However, the system is a lot less sophisticated - booting operating systems and being a generic emulator is a distant reality. I have created a website at http://www.binarytranslator.org/ or http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/apt/projects/jamaica/tools/PearColator/ . I'm sure some people would be interested in this and may feel like they want to contribute. I'm happy to oblige and to share with QEMU. Thanks, *** Looks like he's getting at least some tolerable numbers... As I said above, I'm out of my depth here. I just thought it was worth bringing this up in case people had forgotten about it. _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
