I should have explained better.  My _installed_ binary directory is
only 450 MB, but the build binary directory is a whopping 5.2 GB.  :)

Looks like people weren't too happy with the stability of the IDE [1].
 I couldn't find too much about the quality of the C++ compiler.  I
have to admit that after wasting a day getting a clean VS2005 + SP1
going, I'm quite happy with the thing.  Then again, I try to keep my
C++ time limited (only processor intensive stuff) and do as much as
possible in Python. :)
