I performed the following experiments on a SPARCstation 1 with CG3:

    1. Started up xnews in NEWSONLY mode, two psterms, and a roundclock.
    2. Started up R4 Xsun, a twm, two xterms, and an oclock.

(xnews comes up with an internal wm, and roundclock ends up internal too.)
(oclock is a true oval clock; R4 supports nonrectangular windows.)

Here are numbers, in kilobytes, using size(1) for TEXT and ps(1) for DATA:

	TEXT   DATA                TEXT   DATA
xnews   1352   2628        Xsun     688    296
psterm    64     64        xterm    120    176
psterm           64        xterm           176
                           twm      152    100
                           oclock    80     32

I'm not sure how to measure shared library sizes, here's what size(1) says:

			   libX11   176
			   libXt    200
			   libXmu    48


	TEXT   DATA                TEXT   DATA
Totals: 1416   2756                1464    780

(Some portion of the xnews text should be subtracted as X specific.)
