Ruby on rails is like 10MB on my hardened embedded system.
PHP with almost no use-flags turned on takes 3.6MB.
Lua is even smaller. 700KB. There is a lua web framework called Kepler
that should be pretty small. Its not in portage yet (and build scripts
are ugly)
Lua makes it also pretty good on the Computer Language Shootout:

If you want to make it really small you can look at haserl. It's
embedded shell.
