Java on ia64?

[Ernst de Haan]

Hi,


I'm about to install a new machine which I plan to use as a web server
running Tomcat 6, Java 1.5 and XINS 2.0.

The machine is a Sun Fire X2100 M2 x64-server (1 dual-core AMD
Opteron-processor, model 1210).

I wonder whether I should install 6.1-ia64 or -x86. I don't have experience
with ia64; will Java run well (meaning: stable) on it?

Any experiences from others will be appreciated :-)

Cheers,


Ernst
