I think it is about time to do a serious audit of the Sage distribution and figure out precisely why it has got so large. I'm puzzled though by the "680MB compressed", since the binaries here are much smaller than that: http://sagemath.org/bin/apple_osx/intel/index.html Did you use "sage -bdist 4.0.1-OSX10.4-PowerPC" to make the binary? If not, then you've made one that would be too big.
