the other issue was wanting to enable cases where unpack200 was not in
the JRE but yet could be supplied separately.

As Pascal mentioned, when we first started experimenting with Pack200
we had memory problems. It seemed that Pack200's internal data was
static and not cleared between each jar that was packed. So once we
had packed a reasonable number of jars we started running out of memory.
It could be that we had been doing something wrong. It is also
possible that we could work around this by playing with class loaders
(under the assumption that if the classloader was garbage collected,
all that static memory would go away).

Re: [equinox-dev] [prov] Download manager support for pack200
Just out of curiosity, why do you use the external binary to do the
pack/unpack and not the java.util.jar.Pack200 class? It seems to me that
a fragment that is EE dependent (require Java 1.5 or higher) would be
ideal here. Those who run lower then Java 5 simply would not have
pack200 which is kind of natural isn't it?
