I also voted for 2-5MB.
I think the best thing is having the best and complete package for a CMF (also I'm not worried about including the huge HTMLPurifier in case of pasers transition from BBcode to HTML, or other usefull modules found somewhere).
Bandwidth as far as download per the site/host is not of much concern to anyone. Or even the storage on a site.
Its more what the user sees when downloading. I know a few times i've downloaded say Joomla its at 6mb and growing. I'm just like wow I have to download 6mb, bloated much?
I voted 1-2mb, though I could deal with up to 3mb or so, 5 is pushing it. We should try our best to keep it small though. If we ever reach 5mb size or so we should really consider evaluating what we are including.
I interesting Idea though, we could support something like Jquery does, choose what you want in your package when you download it.

20MB is maybe way over the top. Better to get more modulation.

Like pieter said: 20 MB is over the top.
but, keep it as small as possible.. I see too many packages that are just way too big
so plugins is the way to go
