The JavaVM for Linux is less than perfect and in fact pretty much (in 
your terms) suck when compared to the Windows counterpart... Using Java 
programs in Linux is too expensive (in my experience) in terms of memory 
and CPU resources... My suggestion... Don't use them. Or if you must, 
you know what are the trade offs of using them.
