OpenOffice without java, what would I miss?

[rafo]

There is a really old mailing-list article that suggests that OpenOffice is "faster" if built with the java USE flag disabled:

Faster or not, what is the functionality that I would miss upon disabling the USE flag?

Thanks! I think I'll disable it, for the sake of bloat reduction.
