Compare motor controllers of LeJOS and Lego firmware

In this post I'm going to compare two motor controllers: from Lego Mindstorms firmware and from LeJOS class library. I use LeJOS in my robot programming, because it much more powerful than other programming languages I used (NXT-G, NXC). But I found a strange behavior of the motor controller in my last project and wanted to study how it works and compare it to PID-controller from default Lego firmware.
