Do the benchmarks on a real world test set or for that matter just compare the start up time of a proprietary commercial jv eclipse and a compiled one. The compiled stuff starts much faster and consumers astronomically less memory and memory bandwidth when running. There are also some nice java bindings for Gnome which are useful when you need to run the same core code with a different UI on your phone and Linux box. I still want an implementation of lcdui for gcj so I can play java phone games on my PC but I digress... Alan
