The directories that are actually part of WebKit as such are WebKit, WebCore (excluding manual-tests) and JavaScriptCore (excluding tests). This adds up to 117M of SVN checkout (so the source is about half that). That may still sound big, but it's impressively small for a modern feature-rich web rendering engine.

The battery lasts long enough for it to keep running for most trips that I make. I just have to make sure that I don't bump it... APM was more useful than ACPI.
