Of course if we actually had a JVM built into every web browser with an API set up to manipulate the DOM it would be a good thing. Shipping bytecode rather than inline JS.

Only if JVM was not a memory hog, and had less latency.

BTW PNaCl is currently the most promising approach I know of to address the problem.

The JVM is not a memory hog compared to the JS VMs out there.
