It appears that Sun officially released the Java 6 update 10 JVM today and this is the one which supposedly fixes the class loader problem which caused a lot to roll back to version 5.  If anyone wishes to donate an front-end heavy application with loaded database scripts for either SQL Server or MySQL I am prepared to test that in our labs and publish results.  Of course the names will be changed to protect the innocent!.

Mike,

I don't know if you ever found test cases to bang on. I would like to report that our experience with 1.6_10 has been wonderful. Our systems administrator updated the JVM 10 days ago on all five of our CF8 64bit Ent. servers.

The bulk of our traffic hits 3 servers that are load balanced to run our real estate search application. The whole application is front end is heavy. Anyways we're seeing 1.7Million page view per day and we have not had any problems with the update.

Prior to the update the JVM would hang and crash every few days or more. Our JVM arguments have stayed the same from the old the new versions so the only change was the JVM version.

I have not heard much talk about this JVM version anywhere else so I'm hoping this live field report is helpful to some.
