A couple interesting Stats (well maybe :-D)

Extras has 57 packages of which 7 have optification.
Extras-Testing has 281 Packages of which only 51 have optification.
Extras-Devel has 1323 Packages of which only 102 have optification.
Extras-Devel has 52 Document Packages.

In Extra-Devel, between me and the GPE Suite author (Graham Cobb) we have 41 of the 102 optified packages.

So, when is the buildbot going to start optifying packages automatically?

Are all packages really counted here? Just openarena and openarena-data put 300 MB to /opt alone

I can say without much checking that in extras at least solarwolf, eyes-widget (true!), gpodder and classic-gaming-wallpapers use /opt. That's already 4 packages. Were all packages counted?

Well, you can grab the tab delimited files (I attached them), to see what was counted.

I only downloaded all the _armel.deb files. The openarena-data is a _all file. I didn't realize their actually was a _all file type. I only knew the _i386 and _armel. I didn't want to waste the bandwidth of the site pulling files I didn't need. So, no the openarean-data_all.deb file was not counted. Guess that means their was 80 optified files in extras-devel. ;-)

Nathan.
P.S. I'll pull the Non _armel/_i386 files right now, and see exactly how many others "types"exist. ;-)

That explains. Many python (if not most) applications are also _all. Packages which can be installed to device are _armel and _all

Well, I recall seeing eyes-widget, it appears gpodder is also a _all file. Well, I should have the _all stats in about 30 or so minutes. Stay tuned. Thanks for letting me know about the missing files, so I was able to track down the _all file type.

I'll fix the stats once I have them generated.

Ok, I fixed all the stats. I also replaced the .txt/.zip files I attached with the new version. So you should be able to look at the underlying data I used to generate the information.

A couple more things. I didn't bother recalculating the python sizes, even though it would have probably increased with the _all files, because it is obvious that something needs to be done with both Python and Qt4 libraries. I added a couple more files to the lists since they showed up being the data files.

Kudos goes out to the Wormux, Openarean, Jammo devs for moving the 432,622,610 of Data into the /OPT folder. Between each of those three, you could easily exceed /USR with I believe just one of them. ;-)

Kudos goes out to ioquake and adblock, they moved off 2,642,976
in data to /home!

vim 7.2.0-maemo5 is entirely optified, you have a bug in your calculation method or are including out-of-date packages.

Funny about the memory levels of this discussion. My first computer was a Commodore 64: 64K with only 38K of that for programs

First PC was a Pentium 90 with 8mb ram and 320mb hard drive. I thought I was moving up when I added another 8megs

We now have the N900, which is a lot more powerful and smaller than the harddrive on the PC. Cool.

I thought having the N-Gage was great too- my first "smart phone"
