Re: [Jython-users] Size of jython 2 .7 compared to jython 2.5

[Jeff A. <ja...@fa...>]

Bundled jars I should think. ICU and bouncycastle add up to around 16MB. 
But the language is bigger too (unicode, bytearray, etc..). Depending on 
your application, it may be possible to rebuild it without some bundled 
jars.

The recent 2.7.2b2 includes a -slim jar intended for use in Gradle or 
Maven builds where the dependencies are supplied in your build, and you 
have some control over them. We're interested in whether we've done that 
correctly to meet user needs.
