Actually, I doubt that it's much slower than Objective-C, if at all.
The only place this *might* be an issue is in computationally
expensive tasks. If you use Objective-C, you can ball all of the
expensive stuff into a C routine and get high performance. Then the
integration is trivial. To do that with Java is less
trivial... though it's still pretty simple. Of course, it then risks
your "portability".
