My Java program is distributed as a Microsoft App-V client (also known as Softgrid). The size of the JRE causes some headache, being quite large when distributed over slower connections (App-V seems to cause the Java package to be included in the distribution, not as a zipped distribution, but as an uncompressed, installed package).
Is there any way to have a smaller version of the JRE or something like that?
Or, if someone has good ideas about distributing JREs with the App-V package, that might be good too. (although I do not have a direct effect on the packaging) There is compression, but it does not seem to have much effect.
