Not slow?

You'll probably write this off as "bad code" but have you ever seen how long it takes to load the DB2 UDB 8.2 UI? We've got an older DB2 server (4 GIG RAM, dual 1.1 Ghz processors) and I cry everytime I have to launch that app. (I shouldn't though, I should start it, go to the bathroom for a dump, stop and get a Diet Coke out of the machine, walk back to the server room and then, if I'm lucky and hold my tongue right, the splash screen will come up).

bcnu,
Mikem

Yeah, that's bad code.

BEA Weblogic's admin console was the same way. 140M from a standing start, and buggy as hell.

In contrast, JDeveloper can start in 5-6 seconds and it has a more-or-less complete Oracle tool in it.

So yeah, keep slagging Java's speed if it makes you feel better. But don't expect me to join the jihad.

I meant in general -NT - (tablizer) - (35) - April 13, 2005, 03:44:48 AM EDT

The idea sucks in general, too. -NT - (pwhysall) - (34) - April 13, 2005, 07:18:07 AM EDT

you were vague on why it "sucked" -NT - (tablizer) - (33) - April 16, 2005, 04:00:43 PM EDT

I have a Mac. Or a Linux box. Or an Amiga. Or a toaster. - (pwhysall) - (32) - April 17, 2005, 02:35:22 PM EDT

Cross-platform is an implementation detail -NT - (tablizer) - (5) - April 17, 2005, 11:26:44 PM EDT

A detail that requires... - (ben_tilly) - (1) - April 17, 2005, 11:49:49 PM EDT

The point is... - (pwhysall) - (2) - April 18, 2005, 01:38:58 AM EDT

Bullshit. - (CRConrad) - (25) - April 18, 2005, 05:32:26 AM EDT

You're so LITERAL, CRC. - (pwhysall) - (24) - April 18, 2005, 07:25:11 AM EDT

Yeah, well, sorry; we can't all be illiterate, I guess... - (CRConrad) - (23) - April 18, 2005, 08:40:59 AM EDT

Most sub-giga-RAM boxes I've used J-apps on, it's still SLOW -NT - (CRConrad) - (1) - April 18, 2005, 09:23:35 AM EDT

Just like there are bad UIs in some VB programs... -NT - (admin) - April 18, 2005, 10:13:00 AM EDT

Yeah, that's bad code. - (admin) - April 18, 2005, 04:18:09 PM EDT

So, to summarise: - (pwhysall) - (2) - April 18, 2005, 10:26:22 AM EDT

Which VB? - (ChrisR) - (1) - April 18, 2005, 10:43:54 AM EDT

Ask CRC, he's the one with a stiffy for it :-) -NT - (pwhysall) - April 18, 2005, 10:49:04 AM EDT

Sheesh, man... it's obvious that some of us can, though. - (CRConrad) - (5) - April 19, 2005, 03:33:11 AM EDT

I can read just fine. - (ben_tilly) - (4) - April 19, 2005, 11:31:04 AM EDT

Yep, I still think so. - (CRConrad) - (3) - April 20, 2005, 08:56:55 AM EDT

You've clearly not encountered that line before - (ben_tilly) - (2) - April 20, 2005, 09:21:37 AM EDT

Oh, POAD, you whiney ars...rectum. - (CRConrad) - (1) - April 20, 2005, 09:48:41 AM EDT

Definitely not before I could read... - (ben_tilly) - April 20, 2005, 11:24:49 AM EDT

You mean that Opera doesn't fully support standards - (tuberculosis) - (1) - March 30, 2005, 12:15:40 PM EST

Question about JS and Firefox (new thread) - (jb4) - March 31, 2005, 10:45:11 AM EST

As others have pointed out, that is Opera's fault - (ben_tilly) - (2) - March 30, 2005, 04:53:14 PM EST
