I'll just add for the reference, to those that aren't aware of it, the Java
virtual machine for x86_64 only exists in the 1.5 branch so far, and it's so
utterly unstable that most every notable shuffling around in the memory
crashes it. :)
Hence the 1.4.2_04 is a 32-bit application running in 32-bit mode.
I won't be getting into how much this affects the benchmarks as I didn't
really get into how CPU- and memory-intensive the refresh functions are in
these, so as I said - let's keep it a reference.
Cheers,
