Is anybody has tried JDBC type 5 driver. Is it faster than JDBC 4 driver?

A:
It's not at all clear to me that "type 5" is really an official term, rather than just something invented by DataDirect. Every article about them that I can find seems to be written by or about DataDirect.
So, you could ask whether DataDirect's "type 5" driver is faster than the DataDirect type 4 driver for any particular database... but beyond that, the question doesn't currently make much sense.

I can hardly make out any actual features between the "faster, simpler" marketing gibberish on their website. Are they selling a JDBC driver that can connect to multiple RDBMS vendors?

A:
I thought types I through IV for JDBC drivers referred to the amount of native code used. Type IV was always "100% pure Java". What's Type V supposed to mean? How much more pure can you be?
