Javavmwrapper is slow?

[Ronald Klop]

Hello,

I tried javavmwrapper, because the concept with the symlinks in  
/usr/local/bin sounds nice.
But it makes it very slow now

I have this test program of 3 lines.
#! /bin/sh

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0; do $1 -version; done

And call it like this.
time ./jvmtest.sh /usr/local/jdk1.4.2/bin/java
real    0m7.847s
user    0m6.085s
sys     0m1.055s

And like this.
time ./jvmtest.sh /usr/local/bin/java
real    0m45.763s
user    0m19.226s
sys     0m22.745s

The symlinks I have are these.
ls -l /usr/local/bin/ja*
/usr/local/bin/jar@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/jarsigner@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/java@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/java-rmi.cgi@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/java_vm@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javac@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javadoc@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javah@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javap@ -> /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javavm*

Do I forget something? Or is javavm not very fast?
Wouldn't it be nice to have javavm create symlinks to the right  
executables without runtime checking etc/javavms every time?

Ronald.
