I wonder what sort of machine he was using.

So, this is caused by the dynamic loading of the libgcj runtime
environment, which is why it takes a long time the first time you use
it.  

After that, however, it seems reasonably quick.

This speed will be much improved once we get rid of some of the relocs
in libgcj.
