I have code now running with Java J2SE 5.0. It runs good but I am now looking at using a later version of Java.

I have seen lots of information about new features with SE 6 but would appreciate if anyone could give me some suggestions as to the most important of these. Are there any real performance improvements or really good new features that I should look into.

Thank you

    Are there any real performance improvements

    Heck yes. Java6 VMs are substantially quicker than Java5 VMs. The new features are generally underwhelming, though.

    Other than, Java5 is way past its end-of-life, and is no longer supported.

    I strongly recommend upgrading, especially if the extra performance is useful to you.
