Elasticsearch is Java, and the logstash tarball includes it and kibana from memory, so you can run it as an all-in-one where logstash launches it's own Elasticsearch. While I don't have the tiniest font in my terminal, I still couldn't read the entire Elasticsearch process line in htop, even when I'd stretched the terminal all the way across three monitors! The middle one was an ultrawide! I really wish Java would stop using arguments instead of storing config somewhere...

ElasticSearch is another 29MB compressed, which is fine for a database-like thing, and Kibana 4.x takes 30MB compressed (150MB uncompressed, of which not the biggest part is Node.js copy).
