On my Macbook Pro Retina this Java app triggers the machien to use its discrete GPU instead of the integrated one. This causes both the fans to go up and uses more battery.
Since the program can be on for hours at once (requesting inventories etc) this is a drawback. I've detected this with the following program (http://gfx.io). Its maker (@codykrieger https://github.com/codykrieger) is willing to help developers using the graphics part more efficiently.
Other Java programs such as Netbeans do not suffer from the issue
