I installed texlive in aptitude - I opened up texlive-full, and rather than select the meta-package, I went through manually selecting only the bits I wanted. To be safe, if I didn't know what something was I installed it. But I did manage to save several hundred MB by not installing various language support packages etc. If I were to install texlive-full now, aptitude reports it will use 678MB of disk space, so I think that's how much space I saved the first time around? I think that's probably accurate, as some of the individual packages that are uninstalled report sizes more than 100MB.
