is j2me fast?

i plan on making apps for my s700i phone. i need some input as to what platform to use (e.g. j2me, symbian C++). also if u have any information concerning optimal mobile client/server frameworks (e.g. j2me-php-mysql), that would really help. thanks in advance.

I don't know about the second part. But, for the first C++ based code would definitely be slightly faster that J2ME. But developing using using it is too difficult. So, I'd suggesting J2ME, as it gives good balance between development time and execution speed.

there's no such thing as "fast" in computing, only "fast enough for my purposes"

I work in a company that develops and produces mobile games with j2me and we support a very wide variety of handsets (low-end and hi-end). Depending on the handset, the result is either very impressive or "somewhat playable".Still, it seems to be "fast enough for our purposes".

But, just compare the performance of Visual Studio (written in C++) with that of NetBeans (written in Java). Even though u might argue that these are desktop apps, still both J2SE and J2ME, use JVM.

depends on the phone and the application... a new N73 will be faster than a SE K700iand it depends on what you wanna do...go to [url= http://java.sun.com/javame/index.jsp]this page[/url] to have information about j2me
