I use GTK on an embedded board. The size is not really the main problem, more I'm worried about the performance/speed and the memory usage. At the moment running with GTKDFB 2.0.9 the performance is acceptable, but I'm having odd problems with treeviews eating up memory (possible memory leak which I'm unable to locate). But though I'll give gtk with cairo a try, maybe it works.
