Klotz is a word in German. It means something block. A Klotz is usually a big block or also often a block which makes some kind problems: 'Die JVM ist wie ein Klotz am Bein.' -> 'The JVM is like block tied to your leg.' A Klotz can also be a slightly too big building. 'Das ist aber ein Klotz!' There is also the verb 'klotzen', which usually means doing something with a lot of effort or when the result is large. 'ranklotzen' then means working hard.
