I want to write a portlet, store it in the IFS,
and have it access data in DB/2.

Typically a "portlet" is stored wherever the portal environment wants it
stored. For WebSphere Portal on i, yes, that will be the IFS, but you
maintain it via the portal admin interface, not directly in the IFS. If
portlet refers to something else then... ok.

I am being told to use JDBC. I am also being told JDBC performs
badly.

JDBC is the "right" technology to use to access i data from java. Bad
JDBC performs badly. Well written jdbc performs well. If you use JDBC as
if it was RLA, well, all bets are off. If you use JDBC as a pipeline to
SQL, it will be fine. (assuming of course that you have correct indexes
for your dataset size)
