This is absolutely not true. You might be able to make the argument that if a dev was careless with disk space they may also be careless with performance, but there are plenty of applications that are large and performant (see: any AAA video game, Linux, web browsers).
- vanderZwan 5y ago> AAA video game The overwhelming majority of the size there is art assets, not actual code. Also, reducing the size of those art assets can actually improve performance by the simple virtue of not hitting the memory wall all the time, so I'm not really convinced here. > Linux A monolithic kernel supporting every piece of hardware under the sun from the last three decades is not really a valid point of comparison. > Web browsers Same story: the requirements of a 2D level editor are nowhere near the vastness and complexity of everything that web browsers have to support.
