FYI Sun will release J2SE 1.4.2 really soon (probably tomorrow!)
which includes lots of good stuff, including two notable
improvements on Linux:
- threading performance improvements (fix in the JVM)
- NPTL support (RedHat backported this to RH 9)

You will be able to get it from the usual spot...
   http://java.sun.com/j2se/downloads.html

or the new "consumer" oriented site at
   http://java.com

FFI please see:
1.4.2 Performance Whitepaper
   http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/1.4.2_whitepaper.html

Tuning Garbage Collection with the 1.4.2 Java Virtual Machine
   (there are parallel and concurrent collectors as of 1.4.1!!!)
