Hi, I am evaluating various Linux JITs and JAVA engines at the moment for
the company that I work for.  Kaffe's integer and floating point
perfermance are very bad, and I don't really understand why.  Are there
any patches for this... I was using 1.0b4.  The Blackdown JDK 2 was much
much better, and the TYA JIT was also considerably better. Also when
it came to object and method instantiations and invocations Kaffe was
_way_ behind everyone else.  Also what experience have people had with the
reliability of Kaffe?

Yours
