If you downloaded a binary distribution, it contains copious debuging
information. Recompile it without debugging info to get a more accurate
idea of the bloat.
Then we get the other kind of bloat, developers bloat (I now need this
library AND development package, etc). I may give it a try after I get
a new drive. Right now I'm more worried about my VS3100 and Microvax.
They look so alone, ignored and not on the network. :-)
