hi tony using Java RMI for large scale application may not be a very
good solution as apart for not supporting heterogenous environment it
is slow due to network latency.............research paper also show
that its slower than CORBA..

if u have any particular problem regarding RMI do write to me at
sudeep_rjit@yahoo.co.in

RMI is a very general purpose hammer. If all you are doing is sending
millions of simple packets back and forth, you can do that with a lot
less fuss than with RMI. You save all the overhead and just pump out
raw binary packets. RMI is for when you want flexibility.
