Our tolerances for frivolous use of disk space are clearly not the same, and both of ours are probably different from the OP's.  Thus, my definition of what's reasonable here is almost certainly different from yours or Luther's.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a development package with the sophistication of Xcode to not duplicate or triplicate (or, good heavens, quadruplicate) static documentation, regardless of a dearth or abundance of disk space.

For the record, your user directory alone is 50% larger than my entire SSD.  I  keep my music and movie archives on a different drive for that very reason.

Regards,
~Jeff

On my machine, my user account use 230 Gbytes.
Is it reasonable to have several user accounts dedicated to development on a machine embedding a « modestly sized SSD » ?
