    I'd consider most of the GNU Classpath based implementations (Kaffe,
    JamVM, Cacao) to be exchangeable at the feature level, as they all use
    the same class library underneath.

    They differ in terms of size, VM internals, and performance, but they
    should be readily available for whatever arm-linux platform you are
    building for (or easy enough to cross-compile), ao that  you can make
    your testing specific to your application and your environment, rather
    than having to make decisions based on generic comparisons.

Going over some old emails ... is SableVM still viable?  I believe it 
also uses GNU classpath.
It could be, I don't know if it is still being actively maintained, 
though. Gcj is another
interesting alternative on ARM Linux, in particular for its ahead of 
time compilation ability, and then there is also IKVM on top of Mono, 
for the sake of completeness.
