It doesn't take many files just to run as an authomous cpu/auth server - my kfs for the ipEngine is less than 4MB (before compression). The question is what you want to do once you've drawtermed in. If you want something approaching a complete distribution, you can look for large and little-used bits to prune away; or try a compressed partition (e.g. paqfs).
