Has anyone looked at netscape Communicator 4.7 for FreeBSD???

I just installed it.
the binary is 13234176 bytes long!!
yes folks, that's 13 MB!

stripped!
current1# ldd netscape
netscape:
        -lXt.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0 (0x20b5c000)
        -lXmu.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6.0 (0x20b98000)
        -lX11.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.1 (0x20ba8000)
        -lXext.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6.3 (0x20c39000)
        -lSM.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6.0 (0x20c42000)
        -lICE.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6.3 (0x20c4a000)
        -lg++.4 => /usr/lib/libg++.so.4.0 (0x20c5b000)
        -lstdc++.2 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.0 (0x20c97000)
        -lm.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2.0 (0x20ccd000)
        -lc.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3.1 (0x20ce7000)

With shared libraries!

It runs but it's quite easy to make your xserver run out of memory (or
something (Sig 11))


One has to wonder what on earth they have in there?

(My machine has 32 MB so it can run, but it's a bit of a squeez!)
