generellay the dependecies are getting bigger with every release it should be possible to install a leightweigt system yes, hard-disk are getting cheaper but time! on the other hand running 20-30 Fedora VMs on a SAN-Storage disk space is not so cheap as at home and the overhead multiplies means: i like to remove everything that is not active used because distupgrades and normal updates are much bigger and especially on servers everything which is not installed is not vulnerable
