I don't know about hotspot, but for ExactVM (thanks to Kresten for the
other name I forgot) I tried ten iterations of runSieve from main. It
didn't make a significant difference.
I'm not too surprised that gcj can win this benchmark since the main
loops contains no method calls. On many benchmarks I've tried, gcj is
slightly handicapped by dynamic linking alone.
