I use Pyinstaller with good results. The Python runtime dll is about
two megs, plus a few others depending on what imports you are using.
For example, using wxPython to create a Windows app will add several
files totaling several megs. You can then simply copy the
distribution file directory to the target machine, or use any good
installer software.
