It is virtually the same, you are starting the java interpreter on the
application.  Just as there is no significant difference between doing
"sh shellscript" and "shellscript".

Of course, if you try one of the Java compilers that produce native
code (see http://www.redhat.com/jolt/ if you haven't), they will be
faster.
