So, it seem to be painful to compile the java stuff... and upthread you
said someone "was more comfortable with java" and they were doing "some
sorta-statistical calculations"... is it really worth all that?
They could do it in perl and it would probably be just as fast. I mean,
they arent gonna write _that_ much stored procedure code, are they?
If they had questions there are several on this list that could help
them convert java to perl.
I'm just wondering... which is more expensive?
1) painful install pl/java, develop SP
2) install pl/perl, painful develop SP
