Running server-side Java on FreeBSD in production environments

I'm coming in a little late on this, but I can report great success 
with the FreeBSD JDK 1.3.1 running with WebObjects on 4.7 FreeBSD. I am 
right this minutes in the middle of configuring a second deployment 
server with 1.4.1 and am trying to decide between the IBM JDK and the 
native FreeBSD one.

Since the IBM JDK gets such good reviews for speed I thought I'd try 
it. I'll try and report on it when I get some time to test.

Anyhow, 1.3.1 FreeBSD JDK has been running in production for over a 
year under WebObjects. It averages 150,000 page views per month all 
served from Java based pages. Not a single hiccup.
