SPECjbb2000

SPECjbb2000 (Java Business Benchmark) [1] is SPEC's first benchmark for evaluating the performance of server-side Java. Joining the client-side SPECjvm98, SPECjbb2000 continues the SPEC tradition of giving Java users the most objective and representative benchmark for measuring a system's ability to run Java applications.

[1]SPECjbb2000 is not related to the Business Benchmark from Neal Nelson and Associates, www.nna.com.

SPECjbb2000 Benchmark Highlights

Schematic of the SPEC JBBB 2000 benchmark process

  • Business logic and object manipulation, the work of the middle tier, predominate.
  • Clients are replaced by driver threads, database storage by binary trees of objects.
  • Increasing amounts of workload are applied, providing a graphical view of scalability.
