It wastes alot of time marshalling the structs between java and c++, and this looks to be what is so slow. We've been trying to alleviate alot of these issues in the DotNet port, and its easier since working with native code is easier, but its still a challenge trying clean up the code to make it faster, yet keeping it running the same code.

I wish there was a middle ground, something that could run natively like C++ but be like Java in the sense that it lacks a lot of the pitfalls C++ learners fall into.
