You love to brag about what you are good at. Well, so does BEA it seems. We have heard that BEA's JRockit runs faster than Sun's JVM, but just how fast and where?
So here is the challenge: Submit simple examples that show how the two JVM compare in head to head comparisons. Apples** to apples, just how fast is JRockit?
The rules are simple: REVISION: It was just 20 lines in a main(), now it is no holds bared, but you have to show where the speed improvement through some means and we need to see that code (saying a 3rd party library runs faster, does not tell us anything). Post the code here as a blog comment (or a link to the code as a project or code sample) with your name, email, your machine configuration, JRockit/JVM versions, and your times with percentage speed improvement. The poster with the best numbers showing JRockit blowing away Sun's JVM the most wins a T-Shirt.
Remember, the idea is not really how fast JRockit is, but how fast it is in comparison to Sun's implementation.
Good luck, and may the best JRockit Scientist win!

** JRockit does not run on Apple... But will it run on Apple on Intel? I sure hope so!

Sure, as long as you state your affiliation so that I can create a new prize category/prize of :o) I think it is a great idea.

You do know it won't prove anything though? Microbenchmarks very seldomly do. ;)
