I think what you say about the GUI, AWT, etc. is true, but in my experience 99% of Java applications, not only client, but also server, are slow. And especially with something I use so often as an editor, the more speed I have the better - even if it is load time, exit time, etc. Oh, and BTW, VB is even worst than Java, I'm with you on this one.
