Our bloat problem
I'm willing to believe that some JVMs take a lot of RAM.
That is probably why the most important efforts in Java on Linux (e.g. Red Hat's) are improvements in gcj: compiled Java, to do away with the JVM. Well, to be honest free Java is also a strong motivation.
gcj-Java shared libraries still carry a lot of bloat and take up many megabytes of RAM, but again I'm not sure it is actually used.
