Number of pages is not a perfect indicator of complexity, but gives a
good estimation.

The main problem of your comparison is that the C++ standard refers a
lot to the C standard. A standalone C++ standard would be a lot
bigger.

A second point to take into account in your comparison is that the C++
standard contains nothing about threads and concurrency. This subject
is a significant part of java standard. It will be a huge part of next
C++ standard.

Java is definitively a much simpler language than C++, even with
generics and huge standard libraries.
