Why so much bigger?

I'd open them up and diff the trees.

Andrew.

Interesting. Assuming they both have similar contents, it could be that the IcedTea builds enable debug info.

We also appear to be using pack200 for packaging the .jar's and IIRC that strips out a bunch of stuff.

Assuming that 1.6.0.10 rt.jar above came from a DLJ bundle, I just looked at the DLJ bundle and it's doing unpack200 ... and there are files whose name ends with '.pack' inside.

But isn't this the same 'we' i.e. why isn't the OpenJDK build doing this?

Good question, I don't know.

I just grepped through the source tree which will soon be posted as the openjdk6 tree and don't see any use of pack200. I found the makefiles that build pack200 but it doesn't appear to be used in an openjdk build.
