Why is it necessary to read all the SPECjvm98 numbers to get a good idea of performance?
A35: SPECjvm98 measures the efficiency of the JVM and the JIT compiler when running seven tests on a given platform. It provides data to show how well that system performs with respect to the reference platform. Each test has a unique profile. Some tests have more instruction miss and others have more data cache miss. The JIT compiler might be more effective on some tests than on others. Informed comparison requires reading all the numbers.
