to me there is no such thing as `the best version'

imho any version will do fine, you can select what you want to install 
and what you don't want.
i don't know any exact numbers, but i guess you could easily achieve a 
100-300 MB installation if you just installed the essential stuff (just 
select the Minimal installation in sysinstall - that includes `base' and 
`crypto')
