I'm also surprised. Every java-program I've run on both windows and Linux was slower on Linux. For instance I made a program which fetched the contents of the clipboard. On windows it took 33ms, and on Linux about 800ms.
I also discovered a lot of inconsistencies in "cross-platform" java. When I push and hold down a button in windows it's received as Down - pause - down down down... And on Linux it was for some reason Down Up Down Up...

At first there was only one WRT54G, which had enough memory for custom firmwares. But then they cut down on the memory to reduce cost, so the new WRT54G didn't have enough memory for custom firmware. But the customers complained and wanted more memory. So they released WRT54GL, which had more memory. So I think all of the WRT54G and GL-series run linux.

Adobe Releases Preview of 64-bit Flash For Linux 329
Rinisari writes "Finally, the day has come. Adobe has released a pre-release version of the 64-bit Flash player. It is available at the Adobe Labs Flash Player 10 download site immediately.
Where are the Windows and Mac versions? 'Release of this alpha version of 64-bit Flash Player on Linux is the first step in delivering upon Adobe's commitment to make Flash Player native 64-bit across platforms. We chose Linux as our initial platform in response to numerous requests in our public Flash Player bug and issue management system and the fact that Linux distributions do not ship with a 32-bit browser or a comprehensive 32-bit emulation layer by default. Until this pre-release, use of 32-bit Flash Player on Linux has required the use of a plugin wrapper, which prevents full compatibility with 64-bit browsers. With this pre-release, Flash Player 10 is now a full native participant on 64-bit Linux distributions.' Windows and Mac OS X 64-bit versions will follow, and the final versions all will be released simultaneously. Tamarin, the JIT compiler in Flash, is now capable of producing 64-bit code and nspluginwrapper is no longer required. There are, however, no plans to release a debugger version of the 64-bit plugin."

But does it make self-signed HTTPS worse than plain HTTP? HTTP is the most insecure and easiest to attack. Why should it be harder to use the more secure one?
The only thing that's worse is that they might feel secure when they're not. But that don't justify making it harder to visit HTTPS-sites. Just notify the user in a sane way.
