That's more than David reported originally (120696 bytes).
A fresh checkout of the HEAD gives me 78 MB of Emacs-goodness.
The RC branch is 67 MB - look at all that progress! :)

But since it ought to compress pretty well on transfer (?) that still
doesn't answer the OP's question. Does anyone know how to find out how
many bytes a CVS checkout has transferred?
