Deprecated methods are supposed not to be used but it is possible to be. I
ask how many methods or items have really been deleted and is not possible
to use even if I want. Not the ones that have been marked as deprecated.

It's just for curiosity. They can't be used, but do they exist? I know SUN
is very worried about compatibility issues, but sometimes I get worried my
self about how can Java, bytecode spec and JVM improve if they keep always
sopporting deprecated things. I like the compatiblity SUN guarantees among
Java versions but I believe that, at least once and a while, this
compatibility should be broken to make things different, better.

I don't think any deprecated methods have been removed. Methods that are
removed aren't merely deprecated (disapproved of), but are removed. Removal
is far more drastic than deprecation, and removing even one deprecated
method would cause applications written prior to deprecation or removal
would then break.

I'm not sure that removal of deprecated methods would do much to improve
performance, and it would break older applications. I think the cost would
probably be much worse than the benefit.
