As you increase the size of the footprint, you make it harder to embed. And as you add features, you are increasing the size of the footprint.
True.
Although, I was extremely happy to see that after a year of development, Derby had hardly changed in size at all: - 10.2: derby.jar was 2,250,000 bytes - 10.3: derby.jar was 2,330,000 bytes That's 3.5% growth in jar file size in 1 year. thanks, bryan
