Minimal Tomcat Size Statistics and other information

[Matt Hogstrom <ma...@hogstrom.org>]

I was playing with the minimal-tomcat configuration the other day.  Very nice 
work.   I wanted to get an idea of how big the image was and some other 
information about it.  After I compiled the information I thought it would be 
useful to others as well so I put the current results at:

http://people.apache.org/~hogstrom/littleg/Little-GStats.pdf

I also included some other jars that might be removed to further make 
minimal-tomcat (aka Little-G) even smaller.

When I figure out how to dump the text out of Keynote I'll do that but since I 
have the info I thought it made sense to make it available.  not sure where to 
put this kind of info as it get's stale pretty quickly but figured there were 
others that were curious as well.

Cheers,

Matt

Matt,

Thanks for pulling this together.

I put a patch out on Wed. last week (GERONIMO-1613) that removed several 
of the jars that you mentioned (most notably derby, wadi, spring, and 
some odds and ends) which reduces the disk footprint down to a little 
over 21 meg.

In addition I have a local change to remove geronimo-timer and I'm 
working on a few others.  I'll put out another patch and JIRA early this 
week with those changes.

Joe

It's very nice and informative. Thanks for sharing it! I think you
could put it somewhere on our website, like presentations or ideas or
both.
