What's New in Excelsior JET 7.6At A GlanceExcelsior JET 7.6 is an interim release that enhances optimized applications performance and improves their stability. It also supports newer versions of Java SE 6, Eclipse RCP and Apache Tomcat. Details follow. Performance EnhancementsIn our results, performance of the optimized applications, especially those running on multi-core/multi-CPU systems, increased from 1.2x to 2.6x on certain benchmarks. Your mileage will vary, of course. Stability and Compatibility ImprovementsIn the course of the JET Runtime redesign, we have fixed a few issues that caused sporadic access violations (TRAP #3) in long-running applications, unexpected OutOfMemoryError throwing, and occasional application crashes on 64-bit Windows. We have also aligned our implementation with HotSpot in the following aspects (imprecisely defined in the Java spec):
Installation Toolkit enhancementsBy popular demand, arbitrary icons may now be selected for file associations on Windows. For Tomcat-based applications, Excelsior Installer may now prompt the user to change the HTTP port during installation. Other improvementsExcelsior JET 7.6 supports Java SE 6 Update 27, and support for Eclipse RCP 3.7 (Indigo) and Apache Tomcat 7.0 has been added to the Enterprise Edition. |
