Currently the DLL is 597Kb.  They give you the source so you could try to
optimise the size yourself, my understanding is you are allowed to do this
under the license but you must give what you produce to IBM which I think is
fair enough considering what they are giving you.

You have to understand this is early alpha code so you would be crazy to
base a shipping product on it but I think it will be a good bet for the
future.
