Not any faster unless you use the -server option for
running it as an application. Using the -server option
might boost the performance by 30-40% (1.3 to 1.4
times faster) if the bytecodes are well suited to
optimisation.
..Currently it works on JVM. Will it be 10-20
times faster if the Applet is converted into application?
No.
2. Java Applet works on all Browsers.
No it doesn't. A good example is Lynx, a browser
for the sight impaired, it does not support anything
but text.
Another example is a very locked down corporate
or otherwise 'group access' (library, internet cafe..)
situation where the providers decided Java was more
trouble than it was worth, and removed or disabled it.
...I want all users to run my
Application Will I need to provide J2SE along with my application.
If they can run it in a browser, they should be able to
run it as an application without installing the J2SE.
But then, you will not get this 'magical' speed increase
you are after, not even with native compilation.
