I run OpenJDK 6 on a SheevaPlug using the Cacao VM, with excellent
results --- it's over twice as fast as the default (which seems to be Zero).

I have some benchmarks here:

If it works well on a SheevaPlug it's probably also good for the NSLU2.
Although bear in mind that the SheevaPlug has 16 times as much RAM, and
that Java is memory-heavy, so YMMV.
