I was thinking about the unpacked size - which is 1001M according to
du for chromium-18.0.1025.168.tar.bz2.  That's a lot of source code...

However, my whole point wasn't to throw stones at the chromium team -
I think that they've been doing a great job of fixing this problem,
and will continue to do so.  I just was pointing out that Google's
practice of bundling dependencies wasn't to my liking, but that I
wasn't going to give them too much of a hard time precisely because
I'm not being part of the solution.
