Another J2EE vs .NET Performance Comparison

Posted by michael on Wednesday October 30, 2002 @05:38AM from the mine-is-bigger dept.

Starting yesterday, we received a bunch of story submissions about a performance comparison between J2EE and .Net. It didn't seem all that exciting, and we sort of ignored the story. But as usual, it appears that some people take issue with the methodology and conclusions.

This isnt about who dictates policy. This is about a company lie^H^H^H misrepresenting (either intentionally or unintentionally) the capabilities of a product. In other industries this is called "false advertising" and is against the law, but the tech industry doesnt seem to have to follow rules that other industries do.

I thought that this type of benchmark was breaching the EULA from Microsoft. But, after reading the report I found it to be legal. Since the benchmarks put .NET into a good light, then it is ok. If the benchmark put .NET in a bad light, then the benchmark is not allowed.

Mods: Here's a clue. The parent post is a troll, not mine. Netbeans is one of the fastest apps, there are not many out there. The fact that I was mistaken about it using Swing does not make me a troll.

Hello World is a valid performance test for my application. I'm writing a small app that needs to start instantly, and I was testing with the .NET components loaded.

The parent poster just criticized without saying anything constructive, I would not advice blindly following his recommendation.
