I don't think that's monstrous at all. To put things in perspective,
that 100MB that you call "all this bloat" is about ten US cents
worth of disk space or less. 100MB used to be a lot of disk space.
Today it's next to nothing.
Relatively speaking, it's not that huge. But, when I click on the
search feature, I expect to see a little box pop up in less than 1/2
a second. That feature of broken. They replaced it with a monstrosity.
I think there are things that can legitimately complained of in Adobe
Reader. It's speed is one of them. But the word "bloat" refers to size and
"monstrous program of about 100 MB" refers to size and it's those things
that I reacted to. I don't have any problem with its size at all, but I
would certainly like to see it be faster.
