After removing methods from a class file with the tool jdk/make/tools/src/build/tools/classfile/RemoveMethods.java, entries in the class pool referenced only from the deleted methods are not needed anymore.
It would be necessary for the class file library to check what CP entries are not used and remove them or assign a dummy (and small in terms of memory) value to them.
