  Summary: Reduce the size of the JDK by approximately 25% by enabling
  the jlink tool to create custom run-time images without using the JDK's
  JMOD files.  This feature must be enabled when the JDK is built; it
  will not be enabled by default, and some JDK vendors may choose not to
  enable it.
