native compile option when compiling src files

OK, I don't know how much performance is improved in 1.6.

Is there a compile time option in javac to compile the sources to the native.

I know I loose the portability by doing so but I have valid reason to do so.

We are shipping a jav aproduct in a closed box and the OS is fixed. I am not worried about the portability. So even I get a small improvements (2x) I would like to go for the native compie option.

So I would like to know if there is a compile time option

thanks

There are third parties that create native compilers.

Performance is impacted/improved by the following.

1. Requirements (most impact)

2. Design

3. Implementation (least impact)

Profiling (usually via automated profiling tools) can be used to help the last step (3). With experience one can often use it to spot potential problems introduced by 2 and 1.
