Description
This is umbrella bug for various efforts to improve robustness of the applets by:
   1) reducing memory consumption by the applets
   2) ensuring applet memory is released when applet is not used
   3) avoiding applet start failures due to attempts to use VM with full heap 
   4) avoiding VM crashes

Actual problems to be fixed are listed in the see also bug list.

Comments
EVALUATION number of improvements had been made in 6 and 7 releases to improve robustness. More work is to be done but we will be using other means to track it. Closing this CR for now.
