On a 400MHz PII machine? - from a cold boot, my Java SQL database 
admin tool, (a "medium weight" app I'd guess) takes 20 seconds to 
get to the splash screen (i.e has executed more code than a "hello 
world") and 28 seconds for the splash screen to be replaced by the 
full UI, all on a 300MHz Pentium-II with 64MB of RAM - maybe you 
ran this test without JIT enabled, or only had 32Mb of RAM or 
something?
