Description jezek2 2007-05-05 12:15:30 UTC 
The new installer (used in M9) is extracting its content into /tmp directory 
(on Linux, but I suppose the behaviour is common to all platforms), which is 
probably unnecessarily and the installer needs more disk space than really 
required to do the task.

Also the startup time (before the GUI window appears) is quite long because of 
this behaviour.

The next thing is searching for JDK over the whole directory structure, it 
takes quite long time to be done. Wouldn't be better to just use the JDK used 
in installer or at least add choice to manually select the right JDK?
