Chat with some HotSpot Virtual Machine Experts

On March 15, 2005 11:00 A.M. PST (19:00 UTC), Ross Knippel and I will be in a chat room answering questions about Sun's HotSpot virtual machine. I'll handle questions about storage allocation and garbage collection, while Ross handles questions about the runtime compilers. Between us we'll answer questions about performance and how to improve it (and how not to improve it). Since the Mustang sources are available, we'll also field any questions you have about the structure of the code, how things work, and all that stuff that goes on below the level of Java code.

We invite you send in questions. That's what will make the chat interesting, both for you and for us. I've started a forum topic to collect questions to seed the chat.
