Well mine nsfb executable on x86_64 is about 6.6 MB + 43 shared libraries as reported by ldd. If theguardian.com is opened, 40 MB from resident memory (text and data sections, plus stack usage) is used, not speaking of shared memory. Mind that binary file is not everything, the browser has to somehow interpret the HTML, images, CSS & JS.

I was wrong claiming NetSurf lacks Javascript, it indeed does, though - to quote official documentation - only a "primitive" one. Check it out with --enable_javascript=1 option.
