We did a check around on the users home directories at the profile directory and discovered these averaged between 50mb and 150mb, depending on the range of programs the student used in lessons.
At the last setup I was involved with (GNU Linux servers, NT4, W2K and LTSP clients), the originally huge size of the roaming profiles was due to the user's desktop folders being part of the profile. We improved matters massively by configuring the desktop folders to be in the users home directory, (i.e. not part of the profile) and then served a single, small mandatory profile to all student users.
