Ok, thanks for the information, wasn't aware of that. Does LWJGL have a signed jars for applet integration?
EDIT: It seems it does, just checked the documentation. I guess I'll do some profiling in the future and see if using it gets some more fps on my apps.

Well, I used the Joal wrapper and using openAL needed the runtimes installed, else it won't even start the library.
