I was wondering this too :) But I can accept the comment as valid interpreted either way.

On the one hand 61MB feels like a lot for such a tiny piece of source code, but then we know there is a massive heap of runtime it's relying on in the browser, JS engine, canvas implementation etc etc. Then again, an average "modern" website using 61MB isn't considered all that much for one page! Some of that is surely the rest of Dwitter itself, but probably not a huge portion.
