Java has rapidly gained a large user group and has become one of the most popular platforms for developing Internet applications, e.g., servlets. The Java VM is extensively used to execute servlets in web servers and Enterprise Java Beans in application servers. Due to Java’s platform independence, it has also gained large acceptance in the opensource community. This has lead to the development of a number of large server applications written entirely in Java, e.g., JigSaw, Jetty, JBoss, but also scientific applications a la Java Grande [1]. With the growing number of consumers using services deployed on these servers, there is a growing demand for scalable Java VMs to manage the increasing workload.
