Well, yes. I will do an i386 install later and compare. I don't really
blame the *x86_64* figures for being so high, largely because any system
featuring an x86_64 probably never had less than 256MB RAM and 512MB
really isn't all that much to be expecting these days. It'd just be
nicer if we could install in a virtual machine with less allocated.
