Java Optimization for Superscalar and Vector Architectures

By: Douglas Lyon

Abstract

The present state-of-the-art in computer hardware has outpaced the current state of the distributed JIT (Just-In-Time) compilers. We have resorted to modifying our Java code to make use of JNI (Java Native Interface) based vector-accelerated C programs to obtain speed-ups from 2 to 10 times.
