 Within the FAQ, Point 4.5 there is:
 
 []The size of the PostgreSQL database file containing this data can be
 estimated as 6.4 MB:

 685 database pages * 8192 bytes per page  =  5,611,520 bytes (5.6 MB)
 
 
 So, the detailed calculation results in 5,6MB, surrounding text is 6,4 MB.
 Please somebody with access change the first 6.4
 
 Thanks,

 When I visit a mosque, I show my respect by taking off my shoes. I follow
 the customs, just as I do in a church, synagogue or other holy place. But if
 a believer demands that I, as a nonbeliever, observe his taboos in the
 public domain, he is not asking for my respect, but for my submission. And
 that is incompatible with a secular democracy.

FWIW, I believe the FAQ is in with the rest of the documentation, so
submitting a patch might be the best way to get it fixed. Also, -docs is
a better place to post about this, so I'm moving the thread over there.
