Dean, do you know if those gains are for smaller machines also? I will be
looking to get another AS400 coming up here and am planning on getting a
low-end one (which oddly enough is more than double of everything since
buying a low-end one two years ago).

I have been meaning to port OpenBravo (open source Java ERP/POS package -
http://openbravo.com) to the AS400 but have been hesistant because that is a
large chunk of Java to run on any underpowered machine.

BTW, Dave Odom, it would be good for you to peruse the different large open
source applications to see how they have been successful with the different
frameworks.

The new JVMs *are* considerably faster. We realized huge performance

gains (one app server that started in 7 minutes now takes 2) and memory
usage reductions (on the order of 50% less) by moving to the 32-bit JVM.

I was aware of the memory usage reductions, but not that the gain for
large applications would be THAT big.

Great to know :)
