Well, how about 14.4 KB for the same image? I'll say *a lot* better...
http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/echo/accessories-calculatorL_2.svg

I deleted all buttons except one, grouped the two shapes (white button 
face and its shadow), used "clone" to create the other buttons, unlinked 
the clone for the "enter" key, adjusted its shape (bigger height), 
vacuum defs and saved.

Conclusion: clone usage can be a real file size saver (coupled with 
vacuuming unused definitions).
