Good point.
cc1java+Kaffe C
real 15.1 11.2
user 14.2 11.1
sys 0.5 0.0
Some of the extra time for Kaffe is because it takes longer to
get going. (Initializing some of the system classes takes a while.
These are still compiled using the JIT.)
On the other hand, this is the kind of program cc1java will
handle very well. More object-oriented programs, or programs
that do more memory allocation (and GC) will do worse,
relative to C.
