Your next step will be to point out that the size of the class file is
only somewhat relevant for estimating actual memory usage, right? The
JVM doesn't load the method bytecode into heap space (which is one of
the reasons Java-only programmers don't understand why their JVM with
a 1GiB heap actually takes 2GiB (or whatever) of real memory.
