3.1. System Requirements

ItemRequiredWhy
Processor300 MHzStarting JRaceman will take about one minute on a 300MHz processor. Faster processors will of course give better results.
Memory64 MBGraphical Java programs tend to use a lot of memory. With anything less than 64MB, your computer will run considerably slower due to swapping. 128MB or more is recommended.
Disk20 MB, plus up to 250 MB to install JavaIf you already have Java installed, installing JRaceman will take about 10MB, and creating the database will take about 5MB. Larger databases will require more space. Installing Java takes 100MB or more, depending on which version you install, and whether or not you install the documentation.
JavaJRE 1.5JRaceman uses Swing and other features of Java which are not supported in earlier versions.
