Certainly not. Actually the java code is compiled to machine code at
runtime. This is slower than precompiling, but the compiled code can run
faster than its precompiled counterpart, because the runtime machine
will have information about how often a certain part of the code is
called, and those calls can be made inline. Running inline code is much
faster than procedure calls.

I'm not a java expert, but wouldn't it get a lot faster if you compiled
everything to native machine code (using gcj, for instance)?
