BMR -TSM client should contain a very small set of files to run on WinPE (w/o java etc)

BMR -TSM client should contain a very small set of files to run on WinPE (w/o java etc).
TSM Client is bigger than the rest of a WinPE BootCD and also containing unneeded files like JAVA. This need more time to load the image into RAM during boot and slow down the whole process

    Unfortunately, direction has changed as there will not be an implementation of a solution for this request in the next year or two. There is a recommendation to set up custom scripting that could perform some of this work. If this is something you would like to try, please consult with your IBM representative about how you could get guidance from experts on how to do this and break up the image. Otherwise, if after the next release of the product you would still like this requirement to be reconsidered, please resubmit the request.

    Thank you for submitting this request. This is a recognized requirement and a solution appears to be desirable. This request is not in the release plan currently under
    development, but the theme is aligned with our multi-year strategy. IBM is soliciting RFE Community feedback for this request through activities such as voting.
    IBM’s plans may change and no commitment is made that a solution will be provided.
