I'm one of the authors of a 4GL database written in UCSD Pascal and sold
for, among other systems, the p-System. I was one of the maintainers of that
version, easily the slowest one we had, even slower I think than the ones
that ran on 8-bit processors. (This was in the early 80's.) But, unlike with
Java, we really could take the p-System binary and run it on multiple
p-System implementations and it worked perfectly.

But basically you're right, since it wasn't a commercially successful
application.
