Uhh, Java is quite fast compared to python actually. Jython is a little
slower.
Like I said in an email to Benja, the only way I'd see us moving from
Java would be to first move the Java code to "compilable python",
meaning that we'd have a compiler that would understand that some
variables are strictly typed etc, but I don't see that happening
in the near future.

fast prototyping, good performance for Java code.
