No. In theorey gettext stores strings in a hash table with english strings as key and translated as value. Now when we compile the strings independently as I think we do now I fear we duplicate the english strings for each language. Storing e.g. an array of translated strings instead of the individual string would reduce that replication. But I had no real deep look into the way Java-gettext stores the data.
