JVM 1.4.2 (client) has a regression on Sierra EE RC4 startup compared to JVM 1.3.1 with -Xcomp HotSpot option (full compilation): 73 sec vs 43 sec of user CPU time (70% regression)
To reproduce:
-Install JDK 1.3.1
-Install Sun ONE Studio Sierra Release Candidate 4 using Installer with JDK 1.3.1
-Run command: /bin/time <sierra_with_jdk1.3.1_install_path>/bin/runide.sh -J-Dnetbeans.close=true -J-Xcomp
-Install JDK 1.4.2
-Install Sun ONE Studio Sierra Release Candidate 4 using Installer with JDK 1.4.2
-Run command: /bin/time <sierra_with_jdk1.4.2_install_path>/bin/runide.sh -J-Dnetbeans.close=true -J-Xcomp
Note: second and following startups were always measured.
