Performance difference between Unix and PC
Who can explain the huge performance difference we experience between
using FOP on a NT server or a PC on one side, or on a unix platform on
the other side.
Is it normal ? Is FOP built to run on PC or NT ? As it is a java
library, it is supposed to work on all platform ?
Thanks.
Nicolas

Java performance has never been the same on Unix or NT. It depends on the
JVM you are using.
There have been several comparison of JVM on various OS. I don't remember
where it was nor who did it but IBM was a good choice under UNIX systems.
Hope it helps

Hi Guilbert,
very interesting. If you're experiencing that FOP runs faster on a
NT-machine than on a UNIX machine then we are experiencing the same here.
The same page on my NT machine takes 1 sec whereas on the UNIX machine it
takes 10 seconds.
So far I assumed it's just a load problem of this UNIX machineas it has to
handle the load of 30 developers, everybody with own processes of our
backend system which is very performance consuming.
But would be interesting to know wether this is the case or if FOP is
really slower on UNIX. Does anybody know?

I got much better performance on a PC running NT as compared to
Linux running on a much better machine. I was able to
get better performance on Linux using IBM's java engine
as opposed to Sun's engine.
Hope this helps.
Venu Reddy.
