Hehe, I LOL'ed. But, Slackware's (ver. 12.1) cat is from the GNU Coreutils package. And, I promise, I have not fed the cat anything!

I guess I need to hunt some bloat in my cat...
... ah, 34Kb of .text and the rest is assorted rubbish like a debuglink
However, my ed only has 28Kb of text!

I still have a little game of hunt-the-fat-cat to play.
(size -A, a GNU extension, gives a much more detailed breakdown.)
