Note that virtualised environments also benefit from small footprints, where
the number of VMs is normally limited by memory and disk space (unless one has
the luxury of large and fast SAN).

Are they using an old version of samba? Modern (3.3 and later I think) are
quite big, and the various samba utilities, many of which should be required,
come to very close to 100MB ...

AFAIK, impossible to get under 100MB, unless we ship old, unsupported versions
of samba with known vulnerabilities.
