Can you host my Java app?
Can you help me? I'm hoping someone can host a Java app for me on their always-Internet-connected box.
The app is called "DistanceServer" and can tell you how many hops it takes to get from one article to another on Wikipedia.
It is quite friendly, just run it on boot and it listens on one port. It doesn't write files, and sleeps until someone connects to it. It stores a lookup table in memory (about 15MB).
I'm using it for LifeMapper (http://software.tanos.co.uk/lifemapper/), which is a program to predict new experiences you would be interested in.
At the moment, LifeMapper is hosted on a DreamHost private server, since I need to run this Java app non-stop. (It would be killed on shared hosting.) However this is costing me about $50 a month on an unusuably slow setting and about $130 a month if I speed up the server to be responsive.
I'd like to get someone to host my app, and then I can downgrade back to shared hosting and save myself about $60 dollars a month. (Probably making the web app quicker in the process.)
Have a play:

(Just connect to the app and type something like "tennistokyo5")
If you can host this app, please write me a comment! Pretty pleeeeeeeeease.
