The JBuilder, IntelliJ IDEA, and Eclipse IDEs are all pure Java, so much so that you can copy the files from Windows to Linux and they still work. None of them have any performance problems that I can notice. Even garbage collection pauses have gone away over the last year or two.
The product that I work on has a pure Java GUI and pure Java servers, and our performance problems are always to do with database design and unoptimised SQL.
