Note for Sun >= 1.3.1_07
Starting with 1.3.1_07, the classic VM breaks the classpath, so the less reliable hotspot VM is preferred. For profiling with a 1.3 JVM, we recommend the 1.3.1_06 release available at http://java.sun.com/products/archive/.
Note for Apple 1.4.1
The heap walker does not work due to a broken JVMPI implementation. We expect this to be fixed in a future release. Please do not use the heap walker if you work with this JVM.
Note for Sun 1.2.2 on Solaris SPARC
The production release of the 1.2.2 JDK on Solaris SPARC does not contain the JVMPI interface needed for profiling. You need to install the reference implementation available at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/download.html.
Note for Bea JRockit
Thread stati do not work reliably. The thread views and the CPU times may be affected by this.
