However, the very concept of Java encourages not caring about "performance, system-design or any elegance whatsoever". If you cared about any of those things you would compile to native code (it exists for a reason). Need run-anywhere support? Distribute sources instead. Once they are compiled they won't need to be reinterpreted on every run. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
