The source for ICU 3.2 is 9.8Mb in .tar.gz. PostgreSQL 8.0.2 is 13.2. That means the size of the distribution would almost *double* if we bundled ICU.
It's probably fine bundling it in the binary distributions (at least we'd probably do it on win32, since not many ppl will have it already there), but bundling the source seems a bit excessive to me.
I'm also mildly curious to know what effect using ICU will have on memory consumption. Has anyone looked? My suspicion was aroused by this library that it installed on my FC3 box:
