Does it use the JVM under the covers? Is it just Java with a new
graphics library?

http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/architecture/jfxpub-architecture.htm

Claims to answer this question.

They talk about compatibility which implies the JVM is in there
somewhere, but they talk about it in a sleasy sort of way that might
just mean somebody could implement other languages for this engine.

So I think this is actually a lighter weight engine to compete with
Flash.
