An interesting piece to read. Over at Forum Nokia Blog, Harry Li discussed the possibility of porting Mozilla to Symbian OS. Among others, Harry mentioned the humongous size of Mozilla Platform.

It is 30 times larger than the Apache Web Server, 20 times larger than the Java 1.0 JDK/JRE sources, 5 times bigger than he standard Perl distribution, twice as big as the Linux kernel source, and nearly as large as the whole GNOME 2.0 desktop source—even when 150 standard GNOME applications are included.”
