I agree, It is the JDK, at least on Solaris. My machine with 64MB wasn't
enough to
run Jini. I could squeeze the basic services into the existing memory
(124 virtual memory) with very careful tuning of the "experimental"
switches of the JVM. I don't remember which release of JDK 1.2
that was. (There have been too many)
I haven't run JDK 1.2 on Linux. However, I did on Solaris and NT.
I disagree with the poster who essentially said JDK-s tend to take up
equal amounts of memory on various platforms. On NT an instance
of the JDK for me only seems to take up 4 MB. On Solaris each intance
took up 20 MB for a "Hello World" until I tweaked it down to 4 MB manually.
