I believe that this issue should be addressed by the Android team since it is of general interest. My guess is that the virtual machine reduces speed compared to with native code with a factor of 10 or so. The only reasonable work-around is to do a mixed implementation where some of the parts are done in native code using JNI. It sure isn't fun, but what's the alternative?
The same applies to cryptography which is much too slow in pure java on an ARM processor.
