This one isn't javascript, it's based on my browser bitcoin miner[1] which is written in Java. It's about 2000 times faster than the javascript bitcoin miner that I know of.
It's around 30-40% slower than one of the optimized C CPU miners, and of course it's a a lot slower than a GPU miner, but it mines at a reasonable rate (and it starts up quickly)
As for effective monetization, this is something you can run in addition to regular ads if you wanted, since it doesn't take up any screen space.
No need to apologize for how you feel - some people love the idea (of supporting a website with their computer power), some people hate it.
As for the resource overhead of the JVM, it's infeasible to have a bitcoin miner that uses javascript - that was how I did it initially, as a proof of concept, but it was so slow I abandoned it.

Oh good. So not only does it spike my CPU and kill my battery, I also get the resource overhead of the JVM. This is a reverse DDOS.
Sorry if I'm being too hostile, but I like the idea of bitcoin, and don't want to see it become associated with hijacking people's computers.
