Re: Re-4: [ObjectWeb architecture] just an idea for (Java) native compilation


Hi, look at my presentation of this morning to the Objectweb architecture meeting which present some micro benchmarks between GCJ 3.3.1 and Sun JVM 1.4.1 (JIT & Interpreted). (This benchmark which was run in the conditions you mention let thinking that HotSpot
is better in performance and don't consume more memory).

Best regards,

JP

Thank you for the links. Actually what that guy did was micro benchmarking. This is unfair for java and other late-compiling VMs: What that guy measures includes the startuptime of the VM, also measures interpreted (!) code (not hot spot compiled code). To measure hot spot compiled code, you need to put all functions into one, execute that function one million times, then look the average value. That's a real life test. No one cares on the java.exe startup time in a server environment! No one cares the first 100 iterations of an algorithm being run in iterpreted mode if the next 24 hours this server will execute the same function one million time in hot spot compiled mode.

To write fair measuring micro benchmarks you need to know how hot spot VMs work. That guy seems not to know (I told him today). So I'm looking forward to see the actual results done with fair tests.
