I have heard that the JDK from IBM has issues with SMP, anyone know about this and the current status?

There is a known issue with thread implementation of glibc before version 2.2.3. This makes most (all?) java programs break on these pre 2.2.3 systems. There are no updated packages for the existing distributions, as of yet due to header incompatibilities between the versions as far as I know. If you need that I could create updated packages, which _might_ eventually break some sources.
This issue is already fixed for upcoming releases.

I think we are OK for UP as a Demo, but from what you said here "upcoming releases" is that the SLES IA64 or the JDK itself? I am of course interested in that the SMP would work on release time of the SuSE SLES.

Upcoming release of SuSE Linux/SLES. The JDK does fine, it is just not really in sync with the current threads implementation.
