Yes.  The version that came with Blackdown 1.1.5 started at 25MB core
image and very quickly (1 hour) had Linux killing random processes to
try to recover memory on a system with 320MB of VM or thereabouts.

Haven't been willing to touch it without a positive reference since.

HotJava does not provide any Java services itself.  That would be
stoopid, no?
