Pendragon CaffeineMark 2.5 results for Java for OS/2 ---------------------------------------------------- For each version (1.1.1 pre-release and 1.0.2), three tests were done, and the averages were found. The AppletViewer was the only window open for all of the tests, and I started immediately after system startup.

Just by looking at these results, we can see that 1.1.1 is going to be considerably faster than 1.0.2, especially with strings, floats and images. Dialog and loop ratings took some falls, however one must bear in mind that this is only a preview release.
