I know this is an old post, but i thought I'd chime in. i setup my subsonic on raspberry PI a few weeks ago and have been using it with no issues. I am running a raspbian minimal install (I custom debootstrap rather than use the standard image) this makes for a much lighter install. I also use openjdk-7-jre-headless, which again is a lighter install of JRE and seems to run subsonic just fine. I used the standard subsonic 5.0 deb package, the initial startup of subsonic took a very long time, upwards from 15 minutes. after that the whole thing boots up in less than 5 minutes which isn't bad
I have enabled SSL, which did slow it down a bit. overall it seems to work perfect from the android app to play music, which is my primary use. The web interface is slow to load up sometimes but once it does it works fine. i have not tried any transcoding, video, or jukebox yet, i never used these features before but they are probably worth trying
