Best tool to reduce size of Jar file ?

We distribute a signed-applet to customers over a dial-up modem. We want to minimize the size of the applet to reduce the download time.

I've done a cursory search and it looks like there are various jar reducers/optimizers -- but nothing has jumped out as a good, serious solution.

What tool or tool(s) are best for this?

Notes:
(Could be open source or a commercial product.)

You could probably do as well if not better by hand optimization.
