Nice. Thanks for doing this Jay and Prasad... Nothing really jumps out at me as being unnecessary... Just scanning that list for the big hitters... com/sun (5M) is new org/apache/yoko (4M) is new org/apache/castor (3M) is new. OpenEJB is no longer dependent on castor (IIRC) We could look to see who else is dependent on it... org/apache/openjpa (3M) is new. org/apache/axis2 (3M) org/apache/cxf (2M) is new.
I know this is ugly but should we consider splitting the assembly further based on the webservices ? Just axis/axis2 artifacts alone account for approx 5MB. It's other transitive deps may add up to another 1K. Or do we need to bundle both webservices packs in the same server at all ? Do users prefer to switch webservices midstream ? I know we would like to go for a pluggable component solution. But until we actually get there, we have the following options - 1. work on the pluggable option right away 2. split assemblies further 3. live with bloated size due to the duplicate components till we achieve #1 Cheers Prasad
