Performance is 24-40x over the HotSpot (Oracle Java) interpreter on compute-intensive benchmarks. The primary use case is for non-compute intensive code.

http://www.codemoo.com/ uses it to teach students basic Java in a game format.

Sorry do you mean it's 24 times slower? 24x performance makes it sound like it's 24x faster, which doesn't seem like it could possibly be true.

Yes, slower. 24x faster would be a miracle!
