Your system is indeed a bit slower than mine :-)

However, after a bit of testing, I don't think I have any quick fix to
improve performance of javavmwrapper without losing some of its
features. Invoking make(1) is not cheap on some systems.

I'm sorry for that, but AFAICT your best bet is to run javavmwrapper
with a correct JDK specified in JAVA_HOME so that it doesn't invoke
make(1). You'll lose the bsd.java.mk-like logic though.
