Native code Java for YDL?

Is there a Java for for the PPC that executes native PPC code, instead
of interpreted byte-code?

If so, how can I get a copy?

I'm running benchmarks for a proposed "heterogeneous cluster computing"
research project (20-50 machines running a variety of OS's, cpu
architectures, etc...).  Most of the benchmarks are in Java.  TerraSoft
is proposing their GVS-9000 with YellowDog Linux.

The stock Java for YDL seems to be interpreted-only and dog-slow. So
we're looking for a native-code Java compiler/run-time (maybe
"just-in-time"?) that will run on YDL.


ADVthanksANCE!
