That is simply not true. My Tauri app is 38MB: https://github.com/harana/search/releases

Electron Framework alone on macOS is 356MB.

And this is reflected in memory usage as well.

The Tauri app just uses the system WKWebView. Memory usage can be misleading due to reporting, see e.g. https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/5889
