Considering the functionality, what would be your limit to keep google from being considered a "huge dog"?

[james412]

42 links, a text box, vector logo, 20kb and that's generous

Autocomplete function, dropdown menu JS, 10kb max

Considering this page is viewed by millions, and doesn't even contain the logic to render search results

I was linked https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite, and even without autocomplete or dropdown functionality, it comes in at 8.5 kB, so I'd say that the 10 kB goal is pretty aggressive.

Reverting to their own search site from 10 years ago?

You might be pleased to notice Google Scholar is pretty much still the old design, such a breeze to use

Well compare it to:

https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite

That seems unfair, considering there is no lite google equivalent. The full duckduckgo site still comes in lighter (3/4 of the size), and includes a lot more media, so it's still better than Google.
