5Gb in /usr folder...too much?

hello, I've recently installed arch and some applications (not a lot, actually) and now I have a /usr folder og 5Gb!! I guess the problem is that I have to clean up the system...or is it normal? I usually use ubuntu and 5Gb is the size of the whole system!! (well, almost)

In my system it is about 2.3Gb. It depends on programs you use.
You can install pacgraph to easily see which package  is using how much space.

I think Arch Linux packages aren't split up like they do for Ubuntu, so you get the source code installed as well for at least the libraries, taking up additional space.
