That is what made me ask the question.  The IBM JVM (1.3.0) was very fast,
but it didn't seem to scale - and it died without any error messages.  The
Blackdown JVM (1.2.2) was much slower (relatively), but it scaled well.  I
am curious about the scalability of the IBM JVM.  It seems to me that IBM
wouldn't release a non-scalable Linux or Java product of any kind - so I was
curious about secondary real world opinions.
