The benchmark was not only for speed reasons but also a way to learn Jython .
I share with you the code of both JAVA and Jython. You may run the test in your computer and share results.
The app is building a window and draws 1 point lines and then displays a very large button with the amount of nanoseconds it took to execute the program.
I run the test in a ACER ASPIRE ONE with 1.GHz Pentium Atom Processor, 500 MB RAM, 8 GB SDD HD and WINXP.
