I think only parts are in Java.  Other parts are in shell, which is also
platform independent, but there are also kernel modules and non-portable
binaries (i.e. compiled C/C++).  The distribution for Solaris SPARC/x86 is
the same but the installer never installs all the packages included on any
given machine; i.e. the distribution includes more than one complete set of
packages.
