Sažetak
Due to the availability of powerful computers and improved parallelization algorithms, multithreading has become a valid choice for software development. Therefore, it is worthwhile to compare the currently most widely used development environments to determine which of them yields better performance in t erms of multithreading. In this paper we tested the multithreading performance of .Net C# and Java, which are probably the two most frequently used languages for software development today. We were surprised by these results as we expected that C#, which i s optimized only for Windows OS, would be faster. However, Java, although it is intended to be a programming language well - suited for different operating systems, proved to be faster in all the tests. The obtained results provide insight into the current s tate of optimization of each of the two languages and are also valuable in selecting the language to be used for programming today's complex software systems.
