Java-Dev ML; Java Performance on Mac OS X

In the last few days there has been some heated exchanges over performance of Java on Mac OS X within the Java-Dev mailing list hosted by Apple. The list is at http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/java-dev if you want to check it out. There has been some remarks and rebuttals made about the creation of Java and its alleged performance problems. James Gosling also provides his input on some of the comments being made. Pretty interesting.
