Hotspot requires as little as 128 KB RAM and 1 MB ROM

If one adds the GUI client APIs, then the whole SDK grows up to 5MB ROM.

Some commercial products using the above runtimes are the Gemalto's M2M modules or evaluation boards like the ARM Keil F200.

But I expect Google fanclub to downvote me.

The document you link to is not about Hotspot, it's about Oracle's Java ME VM, which is a different product from all I can tell. It doesn't mention the term "Hotspot" at all.

Hotspot is Oracle's Java VM JIT compiler, not a separate product.

They don't produce different JITs from scratch for each VM implementation.

Thanks for links and info.

I think comparability between Java (SE or ME) and Android would be a great win fit both communities :-)
