Bad news: seems that every applet's method call generate these requests.
This dramatically slows down all user interaction with a web-site. Even
moving mouse over the table to highlight rows becomes a pain.

Bug description:
When I launch WebSampConnector in a browser I see lots of the following requests in my web server logs:

[18/May/2010 23:53:05] "GET /media/vo/WebSampConnector-1.5.jar HTTP/1.1" 304 0
[18/May/2010 23:53:05] "GET /media/vo/org/apache/xmlrpc/XmlRpcClient.class HTTP/1.1" 302 0
[18/May/2010 23:53:05] "GET /media/vo/org/apache/xmlrpc/XmlRpcClient.class/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1842
[18/May/2010 23:53:08] "GET /media/vo/META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory HTTP/1.1" 302 0
[18/May/2010 23:53:08] "GET /media/vo/META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1908
[18/May/2010 23:53:09] "GET /media/vo/META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory HTTP/1.1" 302 0
[18/May/2010 23:53:09] "GET /media/vo/META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1908

This apparently causes a very bad behavior on a slow networks which looks like Java freezes a web browser for 10-15 secs. Mark Taylor after short discussion said this is probably applet specific thing not caused by JSAMP intrinsically.
