Hi, Michael.

I'd like to hear experiences from people who are shipping JavaHelp in "real
world" production software.

Shipping JavaHelp, but haven't tested it in a native app yet. Maybe David Knopf can chime in with his experience in this.

I looked at JavaHelp about 18 months ago. It worked OK at a basic level but
was slow to start up and authoring tools were non-existent. Has anything
changed in this respect?

It's slow to start if you're using hsviewer, the demo viewer that ships with JavaHelp1.1. Keep in mind, though, that you're also starting the JRE when you run the viewer, so it will be slow to load. If you're already running a Java application, the JRE is already running, so the help loads more quickly.
