It's not "big per se'", it's big compared to the website layout. If I 
look at http://httpd.apache.org/ the font size is ok (large layout, long 
text). If I put the same font into the FreeBSD layout (fixed boxes, 
small phrases) it will look huge. Similarly the font at 
http://www.postgresql.org/ is ok, but it will look small on the Apache 
website. This is the same reason why the fonts on documentation pages 
are ok for docs and not for the website, and viceversa.
