<Recollections of my Intel work details fade away with each passing day, but I do recall that a JVM (IBM's I think, possibly others) was specifically tuned for Itanium.>

Itanium code can't be JIT compiled well. Heck it can't even be JID (Just in Days) compiled well. So the quote above is as absurd as it gets. Granted you don't pretend to understand the issues.

I happen to know that Itanic's inability to support JIT and .NET framework efficiently was one of the primary motivations behind MS's push into x86-64.
