We've developed a Swing client application that we run on our RS6000, AIX
4.3.3 with Maintenance Level 10. We use Java 1.3.1.
We have two problems:
The Java Swing performance is abysmal (it's fine on other platforms), and
was the same with 1.2.2 and 1.3.0. Others seem to have this problem, and
presumably this is due to IBM's implementation of the JVM and/or IBM's X?
I'm hoping Java 1.4 with its improved 2D engine solves this, but no sign of
it for AIX yet :(
Our application has started producing core dumps from time to time, or at
least javacore text files. I don't recall this happening with Java 1.3.0.
Each file listed in the javacore file doesn't exist so we're unable to
trace what the problem is. Nothing else is running except for our Java
application.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Peter
