Qt and GTK apps don't usually spawn 5 processes, 300-400 MB of RAM, and take 100+ MB of disk space (because they always ship an entire copy of Electron) just to show a small window.

Then it's not electron the problem, it's the way the package was created. There is no reason it couldn't be distributed as a shared library.
