So you are referencing WebObjects 4.5 modules coded in Objective-C, 
isn't it?

Our customer runs Java coded WebObjects 4.5 applications and 
frameworks. I think the combination of JVM 1.1.8 and the Java to 
Objective-C bridge is far slower and less stable than pure Objective-C. 
Did you migrate such Java WO 4.5 to WO 5? If it's the case, did you 
feel better performance and stability?


Kind regards,
