WebNFS Developer's Guide

Package Size

Implementations of the NFS protocol are assumed to be large. This misconception is perhaps due to NFS clients being integrated with the operating system along with their attendant administrative mount commands, automounters and the like. The NFS classes contain 70k of Java bytecode which reduces to 38k when delivered in a zip file. The classes that comprise the API contain 55k of bytecode (29k zipped).
