Hi,

the new TYA JIT release 1.4 is out there!!

I've just uploaded 135200 bytes to
ftp://gonzalez.cyberus.ca/pub/Linux/java/tya14.tgz


What's new? This is pasted from README:

3. SOME RELEASE NOTES
=====================

This release should show some general good speedup (5..20%)
compared with previous TYA release. Some benchmarks show that
TYA is still slower than sunwjit, but some other benchmarks
like LINPACK or SCIMARK show that TYA can be _faster_ than 
sunwjit, at least on my P200.
Also for some application usage like ``javac Sieve.java'' TYA 
here is faster than sunwjit. I've added some new approaches
to TYA, for details (WHAT's NEW) look into the Changelog file.

Note for our newbies only: What's TYA..? TYA was the first
Java JIT compiler for Linux, designed as add on to blackdown's
JDK ports. Later I've ported TYA to run under FreeBSD too.
The original TYA tgz-archive is released in source code only 
and of course under GPL license. As usual: NO secrets and NO traps.
Compile & install is very easy, please read README file.
BTW, TYA JIT is developed just_for_fun as a hobby only.



So enjoy!
Any feedback very welcome.

Albrecht

PS: also I've fixed some JNI problems.

PPS: web masters, please update some of your outdated TYA links.
