Indeed. As I reported earlier, I have a hand-me-down 32 MB memory
machine here at home, that runs Red Hat 6.2. I suspect that upgrade to
7.x is not even possible on this hardware. So, I would have to use a
LyX image statically linked to the modern libstdc++ (and libc?)
libraries required. An image I can no doubt generate on my other 256 MB
machine if necessary.
 
Does anyone run LyX on even smaller systems? Does anyone propose to do
so, and would it run at an acceptable speed? If not, the inevitable
conclusion is

size(lyx) < < 32 MB => 

  who cares whether size(lyx, dynamic linking) == 3 MB or 4 MB or 5 MB?
