Huh?

    432 .c
    466 .java
    668 .src
    697 .h
   5669 .hxx
   6024 .cxx

(This is just a sampling of some of the higher-numbered file
extensions.)

It's mostly written in C++, with some C, and some Java for non-essential
stuff.  (Note that you don't *have* to have a JVM installed in order to
install OOo.)  Top directories which contain *.java files:

     11 ./jurt/com/sun/star/uno
     13 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/servlet
     13 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/tree
     15 ./extensions/source/pgp/java/com/sun/star/pgp
     18 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/qe
     19 ./jtools/com/sun/star/tool/starjar/regex
     19 ./jurt/com/sun/star/lib/uno/environments/remote
     24 ./xmlhelp/source/com/sun/star/help
     25 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/db
     27 ./sandbox/com/sun/star/lib/sandbox
     33 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/util
     46 ./XmlSearch/src/com/sun/xmlsearch/xml/qe

Mostly search- and help-type things, it seems.

I will agree with you about the memory requirements and the
slow-as-molasses runtime speed, though.  And if you *do* have a JVM/JRE
installed, it most likely gets run automatically at start-up, so there's
that.
