[java] Java game server

kill · 2000-05-05T14:46:53

Hi. I''m developing an online game. I am still in the process of making the decision which language the server will be written on. I like java for a number of reasons, however, I am concerned with speed. Here''s my question: If Quake III Arena server was written on java, would it still be realistic to play quake? Is it realistic to write a fast paced action game server on Java? If possible, please back up your replies by some data (any links, or recalls of what u''ve read will be very usefull). Thanx

I tested gcj yesterday and it rocks. 100,000 multiplications+calls between C++ and Java lasted 138 ms on my system while compiling Linux kernel (which occupies 82% of my CPU)

In other words, Java can bring an easy programming while keeping a good speed.
