Performance issue on OpenJDK

I really like this game and I have followed development for years.

Lately I've had some severe performance issues on OpenJDK 1.6 and I had to install Oracle JDK 1.7 :(
Now the game runs smooth once again.
The performance gap is staggering: 3-5 minutes to 10-20 seconds per turn.
