Can I reduce the size of libraries?
Full size of CEF is now 120Mb, non-optional files are 78Mb.
Are there some compile-time options to disable some components?

Nothing like that officially supported. On Windows you can use UPX, on Linux the strip command. You can create an online installer that downloads files during installation.

I wonder how useful it would be to maintain a set of switches / flags for building without features for CEF3 + Chromium? My guess is it's not worth the extra maintenance and testing headaches for the low use it would get.
The only feature of Chromium that we'd definitely disable when building from source is the F12 support. If there was a list of 20 features then there might be a few more, but I have no idea what they'd be.

CEF and Chromium generally do not support alternate build configurations that are not tested as part of the normal development process.
