Oh yeah, totally. As another reply mentions, this isn't about performance - by this point Javac is most likely doing the best thing possible (especially given the knowledge of hotspot and intrinsics that are built in to it). I kind of hint at this in the readme :)
That said, this doesn't _have_ to be any slower than Javac - in fact I recommend looking at the disassembly of classes compiled with Javac to see how things work under the hood :)
