Why not? Getting rid of legacy cruft sounds like an brilliantly elegant solution to me. But probably not applicable here, as GCJ doesn't really fall into that category, given it still outperforms OpenJDK by the factor of 10 on ppc.
If you can find something it will run besides whatever benchmark you used for that measurement... And will OpenJDK run OpenNMS?
The "benchmark" I used was compiling OpenJDK itself on ppc.
The speed ratio between gcj's interpreter and OpenJDK's C++ interpreter varies depending on the load, but always seems to be in favour of gcj by a ratio of at least 1.6. gcj precompilation improves that a lot, as you might expect, and the code I've tried runs about 10 times faster when precompiled on gcj than on OpenJDK's C++ interpreter. We're working on improving OpenJDK's performance on ppc and other Fedora arches.
