The public at large is convinced that "Java is fast now, really!". So I'm not certain widespread adoption of Java necessarily indicates they don't care so much about performance. Of course, Java is quickly becoming a legacy language anyway (the next COBOL, IMO), so that throws another wrench into the works.
