JDK 6u10 / HotSpot 11 are now released
JDK 6 update 10 has just been released. You can find more information about it here and you can download it from here.
JDK 6u10 is the first JDK to be released with HotSpot 11 (the four previous ones, 6u4, 6u5, 6u6, and 6u7, all had HotSpot 10). The main changes that went into HotSpot 11 were some nice performance improvements (especially in the server compiler front) and, as always, some bug fixes.
For the OpenJDK geeks out there, HotSpot 11 also has the distinction of being the final HotSpot release to be managed by Teamware. After that, we moved to Mercurial.
Enjoy.

No, they are not listed in release notes. They list only bug-fixes, but they do not mention any of the performance improvements in HotSpot 11. So, how can we find what HotSpot performance improvements went into this release?
