Uh, no, this is a standalone Java program (includes interpreter, language library, etc.)

Applets are treated by a browser in the same way that a GIF is treated (more or less); the browser may have to grab more memory to take in a big one, but that memory can be reclaimed when the user moves on to a new page.

Applets run as a thread within a multi-threaded browser, they don't have their own processes, etc.
