With jlink per application, all will be working without problems, but 
each application will have his own copy of JRE and common libraries (big 
size).

With jlink only for jre and common libraries, these parts can be shared 
between applications. But specific parts of each application will be 
only in JAR files (and not be modularized).

These two choices works as reasonable targets, but no one is really 
completely good (big size or no full modularization).
