It wasn't roids and it was certainly overkill. He's said in the past that a lot of the bulk wasn't muscle, it was just fat (and of course, Henry Cavill being Henry Cavill, he has perfect fat distribution to make it look good), and he needed it to have the bulkiness he wanted for the role in such a short period of time. Prior to his superman role, you have to remember he was pretty lean. Look at his role in The Immortals. He's a life long lifter and he readily admits that you just can't pack on pure muscle like that in that short a period.
