This is a too low estimate. On my thesis I have 6528 math insets, and it is
112 pages (not including bibliography) so average is ~60 per page.

> pages, this is 5 MB.

If we use 50 insets per page, then memory is 25 MB, which is a problem.
I will try to generate statistic for the average length of an inset.
