JNode: 'Planned future features include lower memory consumption...'
As soon as I read that someone was building an OS entirely from Java, I immediately wondered, "How did they solve the memory consumption problem?"
Evidently, they didn't. Why even start such a project without first attacking this obvious, fatal problem?
- Rhapso 16y agoBecause one of Java's core unwritten design ideas is "memory is not an issue". So, if the project is going to be done in unaltered Java then it has to be done on a system with lots of memory.
