Hello

I've been programming in Java since JBuilder 1.0 was released and I really
like the concept of write once and run anywhere and love the swing object
models, although they take time to get to know.   I have developed tools
that I personally use.  I'm running on a 300 MHz Pentium II Gateway with
128megs of ram, NT4.0 Service Pack 3, JDK 1.1.6, swing 1.0.3 and the
original jit DLL that came with JBuilder.  All the application I have
written that include usages of databases, swing, and RMI are slow,
especially compare to Delphi. (I know that Delphi compiles to native
instruction, so its going to be fast.)    I have been messing around with
the RMI (this is the reason I had to stick to the original jit dll;  the
rmiregistry program would choke if I added the new one) and have written an
FTP server and a client with a GUI interface. I have never run any of these
programs on a Unix workstation.  I like to hear from people that have
applications running on Unix boxes.  How big is the difference in
performance is there between Java and C or C++ on workstation?  Can you tell
that the Java applications are slow?  Would you propose a Java solution to a
client that uses workstations?  What would be the minimum PC to run Java?
How does JavaPC perform?
