Yeah, well, that's what happens when you build in a mail reader, and a
news reader, and a java compiler and interpreter, and javascript
interpreter, and a jpeg viewer and a gif viewer and crypto libraries,
and .... all into the same program. Then you put an X/Xt/Motif
interface on it...
Oh, yeah, and don't forget the in-memory document cache (which defaults
to 3 MB).
