I don't know if for Desktop App (most likely electron based) people expect any better.

As a point of comparison, I just downloaded the Windows binary for duckdb (which provides a nice TUI for similar tasks) and it was 9.84MB. People can and should expect better.

Thanks for the feedback!
Data.olllo isn't Electron-based—it's built in Python with tkinter and custom tkinter, so the size mainly comes from the data libraries and embedded Python environment. I agree that keeping things lean is important, and I’m actively working on optimizing the package size further.
Appreciate the DuckDB comparison—great tool and definitely a benchmark worth learning from!
