My how resource consumption expectations have changed.

This player: http://gqmpeg.sourceforge.net/mpeg-over.html

With a library of 5,011 songs.

Consumes 18 mb.

Since it uses the CLI mpg123 binary to actually play the songs, when playing the child mpg123 process uses up another 3 mb.

So take your pick, 18 mb or 21 mb. Much lower resource usage either way.
