If you are talking about gui's written in swing you might have more luck with AWT since that is supposed to be using native gui components rather than doing it's rendering in java. I suspect that the sluggishness of swing is due to the fact that it has to copy a lot of data between the java heap and native memory on every repaint. A lot of java desktop applications just use a third party library for doing their gui and that works pretty well (not that eclipse for example is very fast anyway but I think that's because it's a big mess of an application).
