I guess the "small" only refers to the window size and not to the resource usage. Even the application bundle size is 160 megabytes. Holy fucking shit.

Electron doesn't even have any inclination to fix it: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/2003
They could even probably use Chromium Embedded Framework, which is usually ~40MB and get a decent improvement. The binary would only be 4x the necessary size rather than 10x then.
