Yes, a big boy indeed. Way too big, though to be fair it is that way simply because what it hopes to give developers takes an executable that big (Chromium + Node). I'm not sure how node-webkit compares in size. The webview library, which uses the system's available browser, is obviously minuscule. Though I guess you have to hope that the user hasn't deleted the default HTML5 browser of the OS (not sure if this is an issue; Win32 has chromium-edge-based webview included, right?). However it's safe to assume that this browser would have a significantly lighter footprint given that it's built "embedded first". The only problem is that the engine is proprietary. I'm not sure about licensing when it is released. Regardless, I assume there would be nothing stopping people from bringing it onboard for tests/whatever else they dream up.
