Regarding the size of the word vectors files: the text files are sorted by frequency, so it is possible to easily load the top k words only.

We might also release smaller models in the future, for training on machines without large memory.

fwiw I have 32gb on my workstation and my personal laptop is maxed out at 16gb. Keeping within these thresholds may be useful to others.
