One thing worth considering is that you may be able to shrink things
even more by splitting up some existing objects.

I didn't see AWT in the cluster 48 list, which seems weird.
I would expect it to be in the core due to AWTPermission.

I'm curious why sun.awt and swing ended up in there.

I would expect that with minor tweaks you could probably get AWT, the
peers, and Swing to drop out.  That was true for AWT, at least, last
time I looked at this (years ago) -- but I needed a special case to keep
AWTPermission in.

I have patches that do a lot of the things Tom mentions. They are only lightly tested, but they could be a starting point.

I will dig them out and post them this weekend.

David Daney.
