The kernel is not huge though. Even a modern Linux kernel runs on really, really resource limited hardware ( eg. embedded ). As said above, it is all the other crap that takes up memory and slows it down ( and makes it useful of course ).
It is not the Linux kernel that makes the Linux Desktop so much heavier than Haiku though.
