Bravo!

Is that with debug information removed?

I just checked the size of the java.* packages from JDK1.2b4's rt.jar. 
It has 1089 files totaling 2.426Mb.  Extrapolating, Classpath will be
roughly 1.994Mb.  Substantial improvement.

Has anyone tried running an obfuscator on the java.* packages?  There
are many profiles which require the smallest footprint possible.
