I agree with you that IBM i installation procedures are a pain. But
I question your assertion about Apache, Java, WebSphere, Tomcat, PHP,
TCP/IP, and stream file operations performing poorly under IBM i
compared to other platforms. My personal benchmarking is a bit
limited, but tends to indicate that stream file & socket I/O is quite
comparable between IBM i and Wintel equivalents. If you have other
information, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
The remarkable thing about IBM i is not it's support for 5250
interfaces, but rather it's ability to handle complex workloads
efficiently and reliability. That may not do much for Java and PHP,
but it works for ILE based Web applications.
