400MB of RAM for a REPL!? That's absurdly high.

The REPL is currently using 20 MB of RAM on my computer, so I don't know what this guy is talking about.

Electron consumes 117MB, npm takes 50MB, and gulp is consuming 114MB, although I don't know how much of this value is shared between the processes (since there are 40+ of them).
