Development Jikes RVM can take a while to build, but does buy some performance. Probably not worth it for classpath development or mauve tests, but if you want to run some apps it can pay off. I have prototype and development 2.3.2 images sitting around on my machine, so just for fun.
prototype:

Reading unicode database...
done
Benchmark : load:1580ms tests:796ms
