Carlo deWolfe found that one of the big perf problems with Java reflection is that it is constantly doing security checks with the security manager and every get/find request makes a copy of the method/field objects. He had a hack for this, but you'll have to consult him on what it is. The JBoss Reflections project might have it.
I think once this hack is intiated, it is an improvement over Javassist. If you think about it, Java VM has to build up this information anyways...
