When the whole dotNet started coming out (but Really coming out, not just DNA and some predated stuff) the C# developers kept running on a rumour that Java is interpreted and thus will always be slower than dotNet, which has a JIT compiler. Even though it was a Java lie, it was during 2000, so JIT wasn’t that old in Java.
Unfortunately, I heard the same rumour even last year!

I do think Java insulates you from the computer and as such is a bad place to start learning. If you can do C/C++ you can do Java, but not the other way around.
And I think the JVM loading time is a huge issue; you might get away with ignoring it for long-running programs but certainly not for short-lived programs. More than 3 seconds of waiting before anything happens is too much to ask of a user, it interrupts their flow.

Joost: They’re working on that issue… Something called the multi-process JVM…

@Joost
I use 1.8Ghz as well as a 400Mhz machine with jdk1.5. I have never felt startup time as an issue, deefinitely way under 3 seconds. Try running a HelloWorld to verify my claim.
Multi-process JVM is also a solution as Avid said before. However with the startup times I am seeing I fail to see why it is an issue.
