I got:

OpenJDK 8: ~80-90 ms

OpenJDK 11: ~60 ms

OpenJDK 14: ~50-55 ms

The first runs were a bit slower, perhaps because the files needed by the JVM weren't in disk cache or something.

Other languages/runtimes:

Python 2.7: 20-25 ms

Python 3.8: 30-40 ms

Native binary compiled from C: 1-3 ms (so bordering on unmeasurable at millisecond resolution)

This was on Linux, and an entirely unrigorous experiment.

Nice! I'm glad startup time is getting closer to python. FWIW GraalVM native image was 16ms for me on Windows.
