It's not a big deal, it's just generally accepted that using exceptions for flow control in Java (as opposed to unexpected, exceptional cases) is a performance issue.  The process of creating a stack trace in JNI is "expensive".  (e.g. http://weblogs.java.net/blog/tball/archive/2005/04/index.html)

As a result, if there's a way to avoid using exceptions for flow control, I prefer to avoid it.  Sounds like, in this case, there isn't.
