Hi all,
I have huge applet that takes about 15 jars along with it during download. We need to improve the performance by reducing the download time. Can any one suggest means for faster download of applets ?

Rajesh,
Ummm... why are multiple jars downloading? Why not put everything in one jar file? That would speed up the initial transfer by only making 1 request (as opposed to 15+ seperate requests you mentioned).
You may have a completely valid reason for this... if so, just ignore this post...

There are a number of solutions out there to cache downloaded jars (check out GPL'ed PVCj http://www.granitepeaks.com:8011/pvcj/). I think recent versions of Java and/or web browsers may have even built in this functionality.
