SurfaceData initializes number of pipes and loops but some of them might be not used at all. This can be done more lazily. In particular, Ductus library is initialized (triggered by initialization of AA loops) but many simple applets are not using AA loops. Moreover, SwingSet on windows only needs loads Ductus library for 2 tabs (JColorChooser demo (animation of thick 2D shape) and progressbar demo (LoopPipe.getStrokeSpans() needs stroker from Ductus)). I.e. for many java applications initialization of Ductus at startup seems to be unneeded.
