There is little information about how NetBSD's bloat coefficient has
developed over the years.

For mac68k, I found that with a 5.99.2x installation on an 8 MB IIvx, I had
to enable swap in single-user to keep a fsck on the root partition from
running out of memory.

NetBSD/mac68k 1.0 was developed and built in 5 MB RAM.
