BTW. I really like your new blog theme.

As to better blog editors - I am yet to find one. And frankly… Why would I look for one. It has spell checking and pretty much all that covers a casual blogging that we do.

I don’t find synthetic tests like that to be too reliable, it’s why we no longer use much of Dhrystones and Whetstones or MIPS to measure the speed of a computer.

My experience is just that java belongs to server just fine, servers don’t tend to use the parts of the framework which I was refering to they run their process for an extended period of time.

Desktop apps however tend to be restarted after much shorter periods of time which does not allow java to benefit from the after-number-of-iterations-compilation all that much.

I think it would be unhealthy for people to see themselves as being purely “part of the engine”. There’s got to be some oil in there.

Turns out Java was only 2% slower.

My experience with Ruby (which I *love*) is that it’s significantly slower than Java. I’ve got no figures to support this though.

People blame Java for Swing.

And although the code speed generally relies heavily on the used algorithms and structures (and I have to admit the java code is usually well written in those terms), one cannot deny that Java is a byte-code running in a virtual environment which inevitably applies speed penalty. Garbage collector although making it simpler to manage memory adds to the penalty as well.

While .Net is not all that much better since it has a great number of similar concepts, although I like to think MS has taken the lesson from Swing’s inability to not annoy users and the .Net MSIL is pre-compiled on every execution ans it uses a lot of hardware support in terms of internal P-invokes and using native API’s for many tasks. Although the compilation may be causing a delay on the application startup, it however is resulting in a faster execution and apps generally appearing peppier than their Java counterparts.

Saying that Java is slow is a mistake, it has its appliances, I just don’t find it a best language for Desktop applications, probably not because of its speed as a languabe but mostly because of the framework’s way of doing the GUI and its strong separation from the host OS.
