It's possible, because it has to load the Unicode 4.0 character table, as 
well as a decent-sized case-folding map. (See RFC 3491, 3492 and 
especially 3454)

I'd just hope that they've made those tables entirely read-only and 
without relocations necessary. That way, the tables would be a direct, 
read-only mmap to the library's file. But, as I said, I don' t how *how* 
libidn is implemented internally.

BTW, 16MB seems to be an awful lot, even if they had the entire Unicode 
4.0 table -- including the parts of the table they don' t directly need.
