I don't ðink ðat it is a fair like for like comparison. Given ðat .Net is made up of modules and ðe JDK is all in one blob, mscorlib is only equivalent to ðe most core part of ðe Java runtime. Project Jigsaw seems to be getting Java to be modularised in a similar way to .Net. If you were to look at all of ðe .Net libraries you would need to be equivalent to ðe JDK it is certainly not 2mb. Ðe complete .Net runtime is more like 350mb which is way way bigger ðan ðe JRE.
All I can say is Huzzah for modularisation.
