For the binaries, MAME-arcade.exe vs. MAME.exe, the complete MAME.exe is like only 10 MB larger.
Unless you mean MAME+ROMs. This is a little confusing to me, because you don't need to keep maintain all the ROMs that are compatible with the MAME binary. You can pick and choose just the ones you want.
Anyhow, speaking as MAMEDev, I think arcade-only builds cheapen the modern MAME experience.
Speaking as a MAMEWorld admin, though, there's a few Windows builds out there that are still arcade-only: 1. the command-line MAME builds provided by Emu-France at http://www.emu-france.com 2. the occasional build Robbbert does at http://messui.1emulation.com/ 3. WolfMAME builds, which are also command-line IIRC. 4. the command-line and MAMEUI builds produced by InsertMoreCoins at http://insertmorecoins.es (which also produces MESS builds and normal MAME builds) 5. and it remains relatively simply (for now) to compile your own.
... that's all I know about.
