javahl - why would, or wouldn't I need it?

Is it required? If not, what does it do for me?

I've noticed that certain subeclipse oprations (such as compares) are
agonizingly slow on my otherwise snappy Red Hat 9.0 box. Will javahl
help with this?

>>If your package maintainer doesn't ship javahl, PLEASE send them a
polite email asking them to consider including it.

How would I know if it's included or not? (I am running svn based on
the RedHat 9.0 RPM packages here.

>>If worse comes to worse (and this isn't too bad), you can build
javahl yourself. Consult the SVN install documentation for more info.
Can you please provide a URL? Which SVN install documentation are you
referring to?

>>The short course goes like this:
>>./configure --your-other-flags=here --enable-javahl
--with-jdk=$JAVA_HOME --with-jikes=$JAVA_HOME/bin/javac &&make &&
install install-javahl

Against which source code base is this to be run? I see no download
site for the source code here.
