It's more than just line numbers, it's also local variable tables,
sourcefile info
the line number table is 4 bytes per sourceline of code in a method.
the local variable table is 10 bytes per local variable (including parms)
I don't believe this information gets loaded (unless debugging) so it's
just a matter of disk space.
I guess the source/line information does get loaded as it is
included in exception stack traces, even when not debugging. Not
sure about the local variable names, but in all cases the larger
class files will get loaded slower which might be an issue for some
applications. Rebuilding Xerces with debug info included is pretty
easy.
