Whoa, not in my experiance. 
Write a Tini java program that just moves a bit in a loop. You will notice 
that it all happens in the ms range.

Now do it in assembly, us range, not even the same thing.

This may not be java, it may be the specific java interpreter that the DS400 
uses, but it's a moot point sense it's a closed system and can't be modified.
