I am going to blame Java. I don't care what you say, I have never had a good
experience with Java on running on the iSeries.

Mostly caused by underpowered hardware sold by IBM because of market
segmentation.

Remember, a 1 Core Power 6 520 (4800 CPW) only has one core - from a
performance standpoint, it is easily outperformed by an i7-920 (200$),
which has four of these cores.

This is not Java's fault, nor is it the fault of the people that are
working on IBM i Java. This is purely the fault of IBM's executives.
