    …and welcome to your new life!

    I think your new card is a bit crowded. Maybe leave out the name? B^>

    Hi Peter!

    I really wanted to say “welcome to your new life” too! I’ve just found that you left Sun and was a kind of shock :) I’ve met you only at FOSDEM, but enough to know that you are a very nice and smart hacker (like the rest of the very friendly Sun group at FOSDEM):

    Bye!

    Hi Peter,

    I have developed a new self-maintaining heap in C++ that may be suitable for Javac. The idea is that the garbage collection is so fast that it is done each time a delete (reference decrement in Java) occurs. The separate garbage collection thread can then be eliminated, with attendant performance boost. The order of the garbage collection is O(log(N)) where N is the number of entries in the heap. The heap automatically shrinks and it is really, really fast.

    I need to contact Sun Microsystems to see if they are interested in this technology. Could you give me a contact (EMail) where I can submit the runtime version of the product. You are a legend over there so I am sure that you can direct me appropriately.

    Ben,

    This sounds more like something for the HotSpot garbage collection team:
