If by precompiled classes you mean compiled to native code using GCJ,
Debian doesn't have native binaries for Azureus, and it isn't set up
to use the native binaries for SWT. I agree with you that I don't
think that's the core issue though. Perhaps Azureus is using some
unusual networking API that perhaps GIJ/classpath doesn't support.
It's odd to me that it does run, and does download a few bytes, only
excruciatingly slowly.
