Actually the memory footprint for JBuilder is pretty much the same on
Windows. JDK 1.2 is bigger than 1.1, it provides more services too,
and that's quite consistent across platforms. It is true that the
Windows version is more optimized and Hotspot make a difference,
especially for big applications. All this has been promised to change
with JDK 1.3.
