I am a long time Django dev, I have been for ~8 years now. I am also a contractor and have been so for roughly the same period. Every time I have moved from one client to another, it has been a recurring theme that there are some (many) devs in the client company who consider Django "bloated" - yes that exact word has been used to describe Django - but few if any can quantify or even identify the "bloat".
