Java Web Start and Webservice consumation - bad idea?



I am developing a JWS client application where the plan is consume coorporate webservices. However, initial deployment attempts has baffled me in regard to required libraries - bringing my 1.5MB jar up around 40MB! :-O

I am currently using Oracle JDeveloper and its JAX-RPC webservice support. But is there some webservice/XML-parsing support I could harvest from the JRE 1.5 SE? Or is Java Web Start and Webservice consumation just a plain bad idea?
