I guess Sun finally decided to make the split between StrictMath and Math "official" in Java 6. It's about damn time. The slow ass trig functions in 5 always annoyed me, especially when they had another library, StrictMath, that was suppose to take care of the "slow but correct" versions, so the Math ones could be "fast but wrong." Anyways, god bless JIT compilation, x86's broken floating point arithmetic, and standardisation kicking progress in
