Our SPECj AppServer 2004 results (SPEC, TA entry) prompted Bill to write about Sun's Conflated Benchmark. You should also read other opinions ([1], [2], [3]) but I want to address Bill's assertion that "there are significant differences between..." GlassFish v2 and Sun Java System AppServer 9.1. There are NO differences between the run-time JAR files used by GF and SJS AS; the daily builds create these JARs and from there produce several distros with different installers and packaging configurations - check Kedar's writeup. We Productize in the Public and only create a branch to provide Commercial Support. |
Different distros include different additional components. For example, the GFv2 distro includes JDBC drivers for Derby, while some SJSAS distros also include Data Direct drivers (free right-to-use - used in the Submission) and HADB. John tried to capture all the relevant details in this FAQ page; let us know if it does not address your questions.
