I do this too, at my search site (where "frequently"=monthly) and you can search functions only, and use Boolean search expressions and phrases. But right now the entire set of packages takes about 885 meg (if I'm reading du correctly), which is less than my very modest collection of digital photos, and a tiny fraction of a 3-year-old standard hard disk. In other words, it is no big deal to install all the packages if you have your own computer.
