Experiments

  In this section, we discuss the results of a number of experiments that have been conducted on an IBM RS/6000 G30 with four PowerPC 604 processors using the AIX4.2 JDK1.0.2.B programming environment. Unless stated otherwise, programs are compiled into bytecode using the flag `-O', and subsequently interpreted using the flag `-noasyncgc' and with both just-in-time compilation and the parallel execution of threads enabled.
