500 % ?!!

Let me count:
TS2 image ~5 Mb
Firefox TS package - 10 Mb
SUN JRE (only runtime, NOT SDK!) - 13 Mb (With help and other unuseble
Libraries)

I ThinK the size is enough comparable

As for performance, think about minimum computer configuration availible in
the market. (I mean new OEM hardware)
So, minimun is i845G+Celeron2G/KM266+AMD Duron 1,6G/VIA EPIA 1G and 128 MB
DDR (I was happy to find 64 MB, but in our country 128 is Rarity -
Everywhere they sale 256 minimun... ) And i remember, how I was running Java
apps normaly on P2-300/64.
