What I really mean is that there's no extra overhead for things that *aren't being used*. While that doesn't actually amount to the same thing I have no doubt that as development proceeds the MockiKit effects packages will get a lot smaller.

It will eventually be smaller but at the moment New.js implements most of the prototype functionality by copying the appropriate functions out of prototype.js. I've done some work on whittling down New.js but not as much as I'd like. If you're interested in checking out the progress, you can grab a darcs checkout at [1]. This is still a drop in replacement but stuff outside of effects might or might not work.
