It's funny really. These days, I tell my clients how small of a footprint my applications will have on their systems because we can do full installations with data and debug logs fully populated with less than 100Mb.
It's surprising how many people think it is cool that we take up so little space. :)

I recall back in the late 90s or early 2000s people poo-pooing the VFP installations that had to carry the 15 megabyte runtimes also besides the program/application EXE itself. LOL
Ditto people complaining about the size of the .NET framework.
Does anybody complain about the size of any softwares anymore? Today's hardware & storage make those arguments pretty moot, don't they? Sure, you still want to design for efficiencies but don't have to worry about running out of space any more.
