AFAIK, Sun just hadn't gotten around to it yet; don't know if it's in JRE 7 or 
not.  Class sharing is primarily of interest in environments where startup time 
is critical, and Sun didn't think that the server JVM would be subject to that 
issue.  However, with more and more 64-bit environments being available (eg, 
everybody's laptops) that have only a server JVM on them, that decision looks 
like it's no longer valid.  Note that the client and server JVMs are really two 
entirely different beasts, so the data structures from one are not easily 
translated to the other.
