Robert,

On a typical day I run many Java applets on my Windows 95 computer. These include my stockbroker's (Datek) web page. The performance of Java on Win 95 (or any other platform) is totally unsatisfactory.

A single CPU can not compile, execute and garbage collect on Java real time. The obvious solution to this problem is to run these three threads on separate CPU's.

We all accept the miserable performance of the internet and internet applications, because the internet is relatively new. I wouldn't bank on it remaining that way for long however.
