[Soot-list] Not jimplify entire java standard library in
whole-program mode

As I understand it from the soot documentation and the mailing list archive,
soot looks at the entire standard library when running an analysis in
whole-proram mode. "Looking at" means it jimplifies the classes, but it does
not apply the jimple-phase transformations (at least not by default), since
they are considered library classes and not application classes.
Now, is it possible for me to turn off the jimplification process also? I want
to perform a data flow analysis on my own .class files, but I don't want the
overhead of indexing the entire standard library, which costs me about 2.5
minutes and 1GB of RAM every time I run my analysis with soot. I need to run
it in whole-program mode because I need access to the call graph and possibly
the spark points-to analysis.
Am I overlooking something?
