Jikes compiles faster, but faster is only execution of the compiler. Jikes do not generate code which runs faster than code generated by javac. Jikes can be downloaded from AlphaWorks IBM site for free. Source code for Jikes is available also. Jikes is written in C++. Some virtual machines has problems when running jikes compiled classes, using javac is recommended.
