Software rendering is by definition SLOW (and ugly).
At the level of desktop CPUs of that time; gaming is equivalent to cell-phone games from somewhat later, and if we had a good JavaME implementation packed up in a user-friendly way, a lot of Java phone games from today would probably run quite well. (With pix-doubling from a more typical cell-phone resolution, of course.)
