I have been using the engine for almost a year since they announced it. Without the notebook interface, it's only 1.6 GB.

Other people below are showing 6-8 GB on their systems, so it's lower than what I recall, but still higher than your figure I would normally bet. Are you only counting 1.6 once?

What do you mean? Should I count 1.6 multiple times?

I just realized that this number is after ZFS compression. Here is the apparent size,

    $ du -h -A -d3 pkg/Wolfram/
    5.0M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript/bin
    5.0M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript
    8.5K pkg/Wolfram/man/man1
    9.0K pkg/Wolfram/man
     16K pkg/Wolfram/doc/wolframscript
     16K pkg/Wolfram/doc
     30K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Executables
     46M pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/AddOns
    2.9G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/SystemFiles
    2.0K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Configuration
    3.0G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0
    3.0G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine
    3.0G pkg/Wolfram/
Actually the downloaded file is a little over 1 GB,

    $ stat -f "%z %N"  Downloads/WolframEngine_12.0.0_LINUX.sh
