However, the slower but my beloved dual Celeron 533 is still my main machine and Windows XP PRO my main OS (hey, it does work with 0 problems for me).įrom time to time I get to "play" with interesting (and very expensive) hardware though.

I got Red Hat Linux on it, BeOS, Lindows and SuSE (update: I nuked the Lindows partition for Windows 2003 Server, update 2: I now nuked it back to get Slackware on it). My other computer is an AthlonXP 1600+ 1400 Mhz with 256 MB RAM. This is to be my new main machine from now on, possibly replacing my dual celerons as that PPC machine is faster) (Another update: On November 2003, I got a dual PowerMac G4 2x1.25 GHz with 2 GB of RAM. This laptop is now my main mobile device. Recently, I bought a 12" Powerbook 867 Mhz as well, and I added to it a wireless 802.11g card and maxed out its RAM to 640 MB.

I am thinking of upgrading its extrtemely slow default Maxtor 20 GB hard disk (it's slower than a laptop's hdd, I measured it!) to a faster 40 GB one with only MacOSX in it.

I also have a Mac Cube G4 at 450 Mhz with 1 MB L2 cache and 448 MB of SDRAM with MacOSX and MacOS 9 on it. Last year I installed FreeBSD 4.4 (update: now upgraded to 4.8) as well and I am looking forward to try out Sun Solaris 9 next year (update: I tried it out on a SPARC machine Sun led me for an article).

I have installed in it Win98, BeOS, AtheOS and eComStation OS/2, all into the 3 GB hard drive! (Update: I gave that laptop to my brother with Windows 98SE in it). "I own a dual Intel Celeron 2x533 Mhz system with a 3Dfx Voodoo5, Creative SBlive! and 256 MB SDRAM, powered by many Operating Systems (including BeOS, QNX RtP, Windows XP PRO, Gentoo, Mandrake, Lycoris, Xandros, & Red Hat Linux, Syllable and MacOS 8.1 under emulation).Ī friend of mine gave me his old laptop, so I now have a CTX EzBook 800 with an AMD K6-2 300 Mhz, 64 MB RAM, CS sound card, 56k 'real' modem, Neomagic 128XD graphics card and a gorgeous 13.3" 1024x768 TFT screen.

Any ideas how to increase Java 2D performance on OS X? Thanks.ĮDIT1: I thought that these properties would help but they didn't. I found some Mac specific Java properties, but none of them lowered my CPU usage. I think it has to do with Hardware Acceleration and I want to know how enable it. This Windows machine does have a better CPU but there's no way there should be that big of a difference. When I run the program on Windows, I get 0-1% CPU usage, but on Mac I get about 75% usage.

This gets called every 50ms with the x and y positions changing each time to make the text move. I have a java application I wrote that loads up a TTF font and uses the drawString method from Graphics2D.
