Java is, in theory, less dependent on compile-time optimization than
native code. OTOH, I've seen choice of compilers make measurable
differences in performance. For example, one bit of test code I worked
with ran significantly better on several JVMs if built with the javac
from IBM's JDK1.3 than the javac from the Blackdown JDK1.2.2.
