The binary is about 6M, and uses around 24M of virtual memory when running - the library list is quite long as with all qt apps. Of course the more complex the drawing the more memory it uses, I've seldom seen it over 28M though. CAD programs are always memory hogs, or they are two slow to use. Build takes about 8 SBU's, and the installed size is the 6M plus about 13M for fonts and pattern files - this can rise significantly if you want to have a big part library. It uses around 40M to build. Is this what you were interested in?
