Precision writes to inform us about the Swiss firm Myriad, which claims a 3x boost in Android app performance and longer battery life with a new virtual machine. Myriad says that its technology is 100% compatible with existing Android apps. "The tool is a replacement for the Dalvik virtual machine, which ships as part of the Android platform, and retains full compatibility with existing software. Dalvik Turbo also supports a range of processors including those based on ARM, Intel Atom, and MIPS Architectures."

Why is this needed? by codepunk · 2010-02-09 13:04 · Score: 0, Troll

Why would this be needed? Everyone tells me java is twice as fast as C? This must make it three times faster than C, impressive.

The concept is rather simple actually, everyone tells us that java is as fast as C. This will make it three times faster than C...how cool is that?
