Time for AIX on 32-bit POWER
Real-time
applications need consistent run time rather than
absolute speed.
The main concerns when
deploying real-time applications with traditional JVMs are as follows:
- Unpredictable (potentially long) delays from Garbage Collection
(GC) activity.
- Delays to method runtime as Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation and
recompliation occurs, with variability in execution time.
- Arbitrary operating system scheduling.
WebSphere Real
Time for AIX on 32-bit POWER removes
these obstacles by providing:
- The Metronome Garbage Collector, an incremental,
deterministic garbage collector with very small pause times
