We've started deploying Win Srvr 2008 with SqlServer 2008 in our organization.  
Our standard deploy for Win 2000 & 2003 server was a 10G "c drive" and then a 
"d drive" of varying size depending on the app. 

I started out with a 10G drive and quickly noticed it was getting full with 
only the OS installed.  I bumped up the drive size to 20G and installed sql 
server and configured it to use the d drive for db storage. 

That was a week ago.  Today I remoted into the machine and was presented with 
the "You have limited space on the c drive".  It had 72Mb left.  WTF?  The main 
culprit seems to be a dll cache in the Windows/winsxs dir....it's at 7.5G by 
itself.

This is pretty f'ed up.  I can install a fully featured linux server in less 
than 1.5G  why the hell does MS need so much space?

sheesh...
