Check out the linux compatibility java support

linux-jdk13

I've found it to be about 95% as fast as something running
under native linux, but I get the perk of BSDs memory management and I
can typically run 1.4 times the apps/processes under BSD (linux dies).
With that, I gave up on the extra 5% speed and went for the higher
load and haven't looked back. -sc

Let it... I'd rather have everyone focus on Linux so long as
the emmulation continues to be quick. If IBM tried to release stuff
for both Linux and BSD, it'd tack another week-month onto their
development time. Eventually they'll wisen up, but for now,
emmulation's paved my way to gold. -sc
