Interesting, this is by Rémi Forax who is involved in the Asm Java bytecode manipulation library[1] as well as hacking on all kinds of other Java related stuff.

He's got a blog post here with some initial performance tests:

Looks really fast when using type annotation (edit: faster than Java?!). Interestingly he is using the upcoming -hsx Hotspot server flag which makes a big difference in speed.
