People keep bringing this up but Java Card is a really small subset of Java so you can't draw any conclusions. In particular it has no garbage collection, which is easily the heaviest part of Java.

> Many Java language features are not supported by Java Card (in particular types char, double, float and long; the transient qualifier; enums; arrays of more than one dimension; finalization; object cloning; threads). Further, some common features of Java are not provided at runtime by many actual smart cards (in particular type int, which is the default type of a Java expression; and garbage collection of objects).
