It doesn't help that Google did a pretty lousy job with Dalvik.

If those tablets were running something like Aicas Java runtime, it would be much different.

"Androwish", which is Tcl/Tk ported to Android, runs mostly on the C layer sitting on top of Linux. As such, it's way more "performant" than Java.
