To be fair to Java there are indications that the GUI parts of Java are what cause the slowness people see. i.e. applications without a GUI tend to compare favorably with compiled languages for speed. There are various benchmarks (see google) available.
That said, I just don't have enough experience with running Java apps in a server enviroment and not enough experience dealing with Java on a server and so I won't use Java unless there's a VERY, VERY good reason (and there seldom is). Yeah, it's tacky for this guy to have announced the product on the mailing lists, but do you really think many asterisk users will switch to it?
