Would you elaborate on the size of QT? I searched and found this link ([1]) that suggests when done right, the QT part is about 20MB. I am asking this because sometimes people have different idea on what is accounted for being big.

20MB is still large in this case; we're talking about people who frequently use as their download host a phpBB forum with a 5MB download limit, and who usually manage to achieve sizes far less than that (usually ~150KB) because it's literally just CRUD + parsing + filesystem access + some layout XML for the dynamically-linked GUI toolkit to chew on. Think: "would software pirates write their little keygen GUIs in this?"
