What's the difference between the -client and -server systems?

These two systems are different binaries. They are essentially two different 
compilers (JITs) interfacing to the same runtime system. The client system is 
optimal for applications which need fast startup times or small footprints, the 
server system is optimal for applications where the performance is most 
important. In general the client system is better on GUIs. Some of the other 
differences include the compilation policy used, heap defaults, and inlining 
policy.
