Under most conditions (but not all) it can process nearly 4 times as much data in the same time. However 32 bit processors are usually built with newer faster architectures and fab processes than 8 bit processors, so there are other reasons than word size that they might be faster.

Benchmarking is always tricky.

How java is fast?

Java is not fast. Compared to equivalent code compiled to native machine code it is extremely slow. However, it is somewhat faster than many other interpreted languages because the source code compiles to Java byte code which is suitable for interpretation by any Java virtual machine. Interpreting byte code is much quicker than interpreting source code and, unlike machine code, byte code is portable.

How does VM code compiler works?

The Java virtual machine is not a compiler, it is an interpreter which primarily performs runtime-translation of Java byte code (the native language of the Java virtual machine) to machine-code (the native language of the physical machine). The Java compiler, on the other hand, is a separate program used to perform compile-time conversion of high-level Java source code to the lower level byte code. Java byte code is highly portable; once compiled, any architecture or platform that implements a JVM can execute the byte code without modification.
